How well Low Roller holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing east at an average 23°, Low Roller gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 6,970 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.
