How well wonderland holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 25°, wonderland gets about 55% of the winter sun that flat ground at Breckenridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Breckenridge. Its top sits at 12,260 feet.

Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
