Facing northeast at an average 12°, Sawyer's Swoop gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 50th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,550 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.
