How well Rockhopper holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 8°, Rockhopper gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cranmore Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Cranmore Mountain. Its top sits at 640 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.
