Black diamond Silver Star, BC
White Elephant drops 801 vertical feet over 2,616 feet of skiing. It faces northwest.
Facing northwest at an average 18°, White Elephant gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 49th shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,350 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
