How well Creek Trail holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 10°, Creek Trail gets about 112% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th sunniest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 11,590 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
