How well Micky's Meadow holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 9°, Micky's Meadow gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Afton Alps does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at Afton Alps. Its top sits at 890 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.
