How well Flapjack holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 6°, Flapjack gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Breckenridge does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 54th sunniest named run at Breckenridge. Its top sits at 10,590 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.
