Green Revelstoke, BC
The Last Spike drops 4,733 vertical feet over 40,548 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 9,000 feet below the top. That's steeper than 94% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 70th steepest of 80 named runs at Revelstoke. It faces southwest.
Facing southwest at an average 7°, The Last Spike gets about 114% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's sunnier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th sunniest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 7,300 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.
