How well Down n' Dirty holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 13°, Down n' Dirty gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th shadiest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 1,760 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.
