How well OK Corral Lower holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 30°, OK Corral Lower gets about 108% of the winter sun that flat ground at Castle Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd sunniest named run at Castle Mountain. Its top sits at 5,890 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
