How well Glacier Glade holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 7°, Glacier Glade gets about 114% of the winter sun that flat ground at Eagle Point does, December through March. That's sunnier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th sunniest named run at Eagle Point. Its top sits at 10,360 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.
