How well Bode's Run holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Bode's Run gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 78th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,950 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
