How well Ontario holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 8°, Ontario gets about 90% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 80th sunniest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 9,050 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
