How well Ego Alley holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 8°, Ego Alley gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Dodge Ridge does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 35th shadiest named run at Dodge Ridge. Its top sits at 6,960 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.
