How well Trail Creek holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 5°, Trail Creek gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Killington does, December through March. That's sunnier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 93rd sunniest named run at Killington. Its top sits at 2,280 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.
