How well Keno holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 12°, Keno gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Loveland does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th shadiest named run at Loveland. Its top sits at 11,820 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.
