How well Lower Woodstock holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 9°, Lower Woodstock gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Holiday Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th shadiest named run at Holiday Valley. Its top sits at 1,920 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.
