Facing northeast at an average 10°, Bushwacker gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crested Butte does, December through March. That's sunnier than 53% of the runs we've measured, and the 51st sunniest named run at Crested Butte. Its top sits at 10,300 feet.
It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
