How well Old Bo' holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 4°, Old Bo' gets about 64% of the winter sun that flat ground at Angel Fire does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Angel Fire. Its top sits at 9,210 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.
