How well Hideout holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Hideout gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lost Trail does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Lost Trail. Its top sits at 7,600 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.
