How well Thanatos holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 7°, Thanatos gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 2,030 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.
