How well Dreamline holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 21°, Dreamline gets about 96% of the winter sun that flat ground at 49 Degrees North does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th sunniest named run at 49 Degrees North. Its top sits at 5,380 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
