How well Enchanted Forest Glade holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 10°, Enchanted Forest Glade gets about 91% of the winter sun that flat ground at Burke Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Burke Mountain. Its top sits at 1,550 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.
