How well Camper's Carry holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 12°, Camper's Carry gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Burke Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Burke Mountain. Its top sits at 2,980 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.
