How well Ashley's Alley holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 15°, Ashley's Alley gets about 64% of the winter sun that flat ground at Antelope Butte does, December through March. That's shadier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th shadiest named run at Antelope Butte. Its top sits at 8,660 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.
