How well Boot Hill holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 17°, Boot Hill gets about 122% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bridger Bowl does, December through March. That's sunnier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th sunniest named run at Bridger Bowl. Its top sits at 7,020 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
