How well No Problem holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 14°, No Problem gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Buttermilk does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th shadiest named run at Buttermilk. Its top sits at 9,710 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.
