How well CCC holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 10°, CCC gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Holiday Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 49th shadiest named run at Holiday Valley. Its top sits at 2,320 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.
