Black diamond Cypress Mountain, BC
Moons drops 506 vertical feet over 1,546 feet of skiing. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 20°, Moons gets about 147% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cypress Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th sunniest named run at Cypress Mountain. Its top sits at 4,000 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
