How well Graduate holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 11°, Graduate gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Blue Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Blue Mountain. Its top sits at 920 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
