How well Legal Tender holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 19°, Legal Tender gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,270 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.
