Facing northwest at an average 13°, Tamarou East gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Big Powderhorn does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Big Powderhorn. Its top sits at 1,570 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.
