Blue Silver Star, BC
Cougar Run drops 1,399 vertical feet over 11,703 feet of skiing. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 7°, Cougar Run gets about 117% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's sunnier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 65th sunniest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,180 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.
