How well Easy Ramp holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Easy Ramp gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 7,410 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.
