How well Ladies' Slalom holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Ladies' Slalom gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Alpine Meadows does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 69th shadiest named run at Alpine Meadows. Its top sits at 7,340 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
