How well Lower Domingo holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 8°, Lower Domingo gets about 90% of the winter sun that flat ground at Angel Fire does, December through March. That's sunnier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th sunniest named run at Angel Fire. Its top sits at 9,830 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.
