How well Old Timberline holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 15°, Old Timberline gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 53rd sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,590 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
