How well Stickney 2 holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 10°, Stickney 2 gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bretton Woods does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 57th shadiest named run at Bretton Woods. Its top sits at 2,610 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.
