Blue Silver Star, BC
Walt's Run drops 257 vertical feet over 1,076 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 19° about 540 feet below the top. That's steeper than 34% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 42nd steepest of 56 named runs at Silver Star. It faces southeast.
Facing southeast at an average 14°, Walt's Run gets about 130% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's sunnier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 45th sunniest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 6,020 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.
