How well Wood Out holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 6°, Wood Out gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Gore Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Gore Mountain. Its top sits at 2,800 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.
