How well Dipsy Doodle holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 13°, Dipsy Doodle gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Aspen Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 66th shadiest named run at Aspen Mountain. Its top sits at 11,220 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.
