Facing northwest at an average 5°, Skyline gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Dodge Ridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 40th shadiest named run at Dodge Ridge. Its top sits at 8,070 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.
