Black diamond Fernie, BC
Pillow Talk drops 600 vertical feet over 2,176 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 33° about 1,110 feet below the top. That's steeper than 77% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 68th steepest of 119 named runs at Fernie. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 18°, Pillow Talk gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Fernie does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 40th sunniest named run at Fernie. Its top sits at 6,060 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.
