Facing north at an average 7°, Bull Gap Nordic, Aisle One gets about 42% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Ashland does, December through March. That's shadier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the shadiest named run at Mt Ashland. Its top sits at 6,530 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.
