How well Rein's Run holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 32°, Rein's Run gets about 104% of the winter sun that flat ground at Brighton does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th sunniest named run at Brighton. Its top sits at 10,330 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
