How well Loup Run holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 11°, Loup Run gets about 75% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loup Loup does, December through March. That's shadier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Loup Loup. Its top sits at 5,290 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.
