How well Chairline Right holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 35°, Chairline Right gets about 177% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crystal Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 100% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th sunniest named run at Crystal Mountain. Its top sits at 6,710 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.
