How well Tresspass Trail holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 4°, Tresspass Trail gets about 75% of the winter sun that flat ground at Fernie does, December through March. That's shadier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 60th shadiest named run at Fernie. Its top sits at 5,250 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.
