Spectra drops 707 vertical feet over 6,401 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 16° about 620 feet below the top. That's steeper than 63% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 95th steepest of 126 named runs at Sunday River. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 7°, Spectra gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunday River does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st sunniest named run at Sunday River. Its top sits at 1,870 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
