How well Keres holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 6°, Keres gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th shadiest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 2,020 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
