Facing northwest at an average 16°, Peoria gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crested Butte does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 37th shadiest named run at Crested Butte. Its top sits at 10,790 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.
