How well Escape holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing northwest at an average 6°, Escape gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boyne Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Boyne Mountain. Its top sits at 1,120 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.
