How well Chicken Out holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 8°, Chicken Out gets about 86% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lost Trail does, December through March. That's sunnier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd sunniest named run at Lost Trail. Its top sits at 7,060 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.
