How well Sawmill Gulch holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 7°, Sawmill Gulch gets about 106% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bridger Bowl does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Bridger Bowl. Its top sits at 6,300 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.
