How well Roger's World holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 9°, Roger's World gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Berkshire East does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the shadiest named run at Berkshire East. Its top sits at 1,220 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.
