Puntilla Lake is at 62 degrees. The sun is above the horizon for about 3.5 hours in the midst of winter. Although that does not mean you can the sun for that long, even on a clear day. The sun disappears behind the mountains surrounding the lake. The light in winter is magic.

I wonder how high the sun would be at noon. What latitude are you at?
