How well Treasure holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 18°, Treasure gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Great Divide does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Great Divide. Its top sits at 7,160 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.
