How well Cat Track holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing east at an average 16°, Cat Track gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Cypress Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 37th sunniest named run at Cypress Mountain. Its top sits at 4,090 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.

Nearby at Cypress Mountain
