How well Good Luck holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 20°, Good Luck gets about 55% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 7,140 feet.

Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
