How well Whiskey Towne holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 22°, Whiskey Towne gets about 49% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cannon Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th shadiest named run at Cannon Mountain. Its top sits at 2,360 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.
