Black diamond Ski Smithers, BC
Alpenhorn drops 1,279 vertical feet over 4,110 feet of skiing. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 19°, Alpenhorn gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Smithers does, December through March. That's sunnier than 53% of the runs we've measured, and the 34th sunniest named run at Ski Smithers. Its top sits at 5,260 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.
