How well Ron's Run holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing southeast at an average 9°, Ron's Run gets about 110% of the winter sun that flat ground at Boyne Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Boyne Mountain. Its top sits at 980 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.
