Facing northeast at an average 17°, Old Tecumseh gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Waterville Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Waterville Valley. Its top sits at 2,920 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.
