How well Wacky Weasel Way holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 8°, Wacky Weasel Way gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Grand Targhee does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 57th sunniest named run at Grand Targhee. Its top sits at 8,200 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
