Green Castle Mountain, BC
North Run drops 956 vertical feet over 4,204 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 3,760 feet below the top. That's steeper than 91% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 130th steepest of 140 named runs at Castle Mountain. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 13°, North Run gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 35th shadiest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 6,100 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
