How well Sunshine holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 12°, Sunshine gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's shadier than 59% of the runs we've measured, and the 77th shadiest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 5,950 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.

Nearby at Panorama

Measured by ZRankings from 30-meter elevation data from Natural Resources Canada, too coarse to measure steepness. Steepest pitch is the steepest stretch of about 50 vertical feet along the skiable line. Run lines come from OpenStreetMap and can sit a little off the skied path.
