How well Pabst Panic holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 19°, Pabst Panic gets about 132% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bromley Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th sunniest named run at Bromley Mountain. Its top sits at 2,950 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.
