How well Too Much holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Too Much gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Copper does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 44th shadiest named run at Copper. Its top sits at 11,450 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.
