Facing northeast at an average 20°, Lost Princess gets about 59% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunday River does, December through March. That's shadier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th shadiest named run at Sunday River. Its top sits at 3,070 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.
