How well Tensleep Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 10°, Tensleep Bowl gets about 64% of the winter sun that flat ground at Jackson Hole does, December through March. That's shadier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th shadiest named run at Jackson Hole. Its top sits at 9,820 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.
