How well Minpi Rapids holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 12°, Minpi Rapids gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Labrador Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Labrador Mountain. Its top sits at 1,510 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.
