How well Coppertone holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Coppertone gets about 78% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 88th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 10,270 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.
