How well Peeler holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 19°, Peeler gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Deer Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 62nd shadiest named run at Deer Valley. Its top sits at 8,800 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.
