Facing northwest at an average 14°, Slot gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Caberfae Peaks does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Caberfae Peaks. Its top sits at 1,430 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.
