How well Jelly Roll holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 25°, Jelly Roll gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 47th shadiest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 5,260 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.
