How well Tiger Steeps holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 16°, Tiger Steeps gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Gunstock does, December through March. That's shadier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th shadiest named run at Gunstock. Its top sits at 1,680 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.
