How well Sleepy Connector holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 12°, Sleepy Connector gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bogus Basin does, December through March. That's shadier than 59% of the runs we've measured, and the 58th shadiest named run at Bogus Basin. Its top sits at 6,670 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.
