Blue Silver Star, BC
Cloud Nine drops 721 vertical feet over 2,740 feet of skiing. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 16°, Cloud Nine gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 82nd sunniest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,120 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.
