Facing north at an average 13°, David's Detour gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cannon Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd shadiest named run at Cannon Mountain. Its top sits at 3,550 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.
