Pointing the duct at the ridge vent will probably work in winter, when you're dumping warm, buoyant air into cold.
Not so in the summer when you're dumping cool air into warm.
Ice dams have nothing to do with exhaust fans; they're the result of inadequate attic ventilation and/or insulation that enables a warm roof to melt snow upward from the bottom.
but in summer you are pushing this moisture into hot enough air space it has no trouble accepting that moisture, you wont get a dense water vapor cloud in there it will be fully absorbed for the most part and it isn't condensing on much of anything either.
