How well Huckleberry holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 8°, Huckleberry gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Grand Targhee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 72nd sunniest named run at Grand Targhee. Its top sits at 8,020 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.
