How well Daydream holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 18°, Daydream gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Breckenridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 63rd sunniest named run at Breckenridge. Its top sits at 11,600 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.
