Facing east at an average 13°, Lower College gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Anthony Lakes does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th sunniest named run at Anthony Lakes. Its top sits at 7,700 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.
