How well Mr Magoo holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 12°, Mr Magoo gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Crystal Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 72nd sunniest named run at Crystal Mountain. Its top sits at 5,990 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
