Blue Silver Star, BC
Skunk Hollow drops 250 vertical feet over 873 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 250 feet below the top. That's steeper than 50% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 35th steepest of 56 named runs at Silver Star. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 17°, Skunk Hollow gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 80th 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.
