Facing northwest at an average 14°, Lower Flying Goose gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's shadier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th shadiest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 1,610 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.
