How well Green Acres holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 5°, Green Acres gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's sunnier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 42nd sunniest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 9,810 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.
