How well Lone Pine holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 20°, Lone Pine gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Brighton does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Brighton. Its top sits at 9,860 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.
