How well Endless Winter holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 26°, Endless Winter gets about 120% of the winter sun that flat ground at Brighton does, December through March. That's sunnier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Brighton. Its top sits at 10,140 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.
