Facing north at an average 15°, Face of Olly gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Aspen Highlands does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Aspen Highlands. Its top sits at 11,250 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.
