How well Honduran Woods holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 20°, Honduran Woods gets about 53% of the winter sun that flat ground at Great Divide does, December through March. That's shadier than 91% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Great Divide. Its top sits at 6,420 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.
