Unrated Castle Mountain, BC
Almost Perfect drops 510 vertical feet over 1,492 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 93% of the 511 unrated runs we've measured in North America, and the 91st steepest of 140 named runs at Castle Mountain. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 20°, Almost Perfect gets about 99% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 59th sunniest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 5,630 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
