Facing north at an average 13°, Baa-Da-Bing gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Angel Fire does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd shadiest named run at Angel Fire. Its top sits at 10,720 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.
