How well Bogus Creek Trail holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 4°, Bogus Creek Trail gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 6,350 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.
