How well Dealer's Choice holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 10°, Dealer's Choice gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's shadier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 33rd shadiest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 11,880 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.
