How well Zephyr holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Zephyr gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Greek Peak does, December through March. That's sunnier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th sunniest named run at Greek Peak. Its top sits at 2,090 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.
