How well Sunder holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 14°, Sunder gets about 127% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bromley Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 91% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th sunniest named run at Bromley Mountain. Its top sits at 3,260 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.
