That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Cypress Mountain. Its top sits at 3,400 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.
