How well Mambo Playground holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 8°, Mambo Playground gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at June Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th shadiest named run at June Mountain. Its top sits at 9,120 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
