How well Ridgeview holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 6°, Ridgeview gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 51st sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 3,250 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.
