How well Little Devil holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 16°, Little Devil gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Blue Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Blue Mountain. Its top sits at 1,360 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.
