How well Woody Fellers holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 17°, Woody Fellers gets about 56% of the winter sun that flat ground at Homewood does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th shadiest named run at Homewood. Its top sits at 7,360 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.
