How well Leo's Legacy holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing southeast at an average 5°, Leo's Legacy gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crystal Mountain Mi does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Crystal Mountain Mi. Its top sits at 1,100 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
