Facing northwest at an average 24°, The Face gets about 52% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 8,850 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.
