How well Troyer's Trail holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 18°, Troyer's Trail gets about 64% of the winter sun that flat ground at Aspen Highlands does, December through March. That's shadier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 39th shadiest named run at Aspen Highlands. Its top sits at 9,150 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.
