How well D-Street holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 14°, D-Street gets about 95% of the winter sun that flat ground at Beaver Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th sunniest named run at Beaver Mountain. Its top sits at 8,700 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.
