Facing east at an average 34°, Left Angle gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crystal Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 36th shadiest named run at Crystal Mountain. Its top sits at 6,120 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.
