How well Extrovert holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 19°, Extrovert gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Alta does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 45th shadiest named run at Alta. Its top sits at 9,900 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.
