How well The Glade holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 13°, The Glade gets about 133% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bromley Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th sunniest named run at Bromley Mountain. Its top sits at 2,630 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.
