How well Jackrabbit holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 9°, Jackrabbit gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Arizona Snowbowl does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th sunniest named run at Arizona Snowbowl. Its top sits at 9,420 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
