How well Lower Davos holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 17°, Lower Davos gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th 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.
