How well Chairline holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 13°, Chairline gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 9,720 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.
