Blue Ski Smithers, BC
Footloose drops 1,324 vertical feet over 6,370 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 19° about 4,130 feet below the top. That's steeper than 31% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 8th steepest of 16 named runs at Ski Smithers. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 12°, Footloose gets about 104% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Smithers does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Ski Smithers. Its top sits at 5,240 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
