How well Rosi's Run holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 17°, Rosi's Run gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 10,860 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.
