How well Stoic holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 12°, Stoic gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd shadiest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 1,770 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.
