Facing southeast at an average 25°, Out of Bounds Woods gets about 152% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stevens Pass does, December through March. That's sunnier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Stevens Pass. Its top sits at 5,290 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
