Facing northwest at an average 11°, Freeway gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at Palisades Tahoe does, December through March. That's shadier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 76th shadiest named run at Palisades Tahoe. Its top sits at 8,200 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.
