How well Omar's Inspiration holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 24°, Omar's Inspiration gets about 139% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's sunnier than 96% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 7,400 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
