How well Going Down, Moose holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 9°, Going Down, Moose gets about 119% of the winter sun that flat ground at Kelly Canyon does, December through March. That's sunnier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Kelly Canyon. Its top sits at 6,580 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
