How well Quite Right holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 20°, Quite Right gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Fernie does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 34th sunniest named run at Fernie. Its top sits at 6,290 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.
