How well Lost Groomer holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 19°, Lost Groomer gets about 145% of the winter sun that flat ground at Grand Targhee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th sunniest named run at Grand Targhee. Its top sits at 9,570 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.
