Black diamond Silver Summit, AB
Shaky Knees drops 542 vertical feet over 2,005 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 30° about 1,060 feet below the top. That's steeper than 55% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 4th steepest of 11 named runs at Silver Summit. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 16°, Shaky Knees gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Summit does, December through March. That's shadier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Silver Summit. Its top sits at 4,680 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
