How well Sunrise Trail holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 4°, Sunrise Trail gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd shadiest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 2,220 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.
