Facing north at an average 21°, Numbers gets about 52% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sun Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 91% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st shadiest named run at Sun Valley. Its top sits at 8,320 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.
