How well Huggin's Flat holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing northeast at an average 2°, Huggin's Flat gets about 96% of the winter sun that flat ground at Great Divide does, December through March. That's sunnier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Great Divide. Its top sits at 6,260 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.
