Facing north at an average 12°, Power line gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Breckenridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Breckenridge. Its top sits at 10,700 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.
