How well Jasper holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 11°, Jasper gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Angel Fire does, December through March. That's shadier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 66th shadiest named run at Angel Fire. Its top sits at 10,310 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.
