How well Mr. Moose holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 23°, Mr. Moose gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,060 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.
