How well Leap Frog holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Leap Frog gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 101st shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 10,400 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.
