How well Easy Way holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 10°, Easy Way gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 49th shadiest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 5,490 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
