Facing east at an average 19°, Skyeburst - Upper gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 55th sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,600 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
