How well Crescent Moon holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing southeast at an average 5°, Crescent Moon gets about 108% of the winter sun that flat ground at Eagle Point does, December through March. That's sunnier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd sunniest named run at Eagle Point. Its top sits at 10,300 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
