Facing northwest at an average 13°, Summit Glades gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th shadiest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 2,600 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.
