Double black Ski Smithers, BC
Cold Smoke drops 1,028 vertical feet over 2,852 feet of skiing. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 22°, Cold Smoke gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Smithers does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Ski Smithers. Its top sits at 5,060 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.
