Blue Fernie, BC
Shakey's Acres drops 289 vertical feet over 665 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 42° about 130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 100% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 119 named runs at Fernie. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 26°, Shakey's Acres gets about 115% of the winter sun that flat ground at Fernie does, December through March. That's sunnier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd sunniest named run at Fernie. Its top sits at 6,220 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.
