How well Eagle's Flight holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Eagle's Flight gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lookout Pass does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Lookout Pass. Its top sits at 5,810 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.
