How well Big Bunny holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 6°, Big Bunny gets about 114% of the winter sun that flat ground at Lutsen Mountains does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 57th sunniest named run at Lutsen Mountains. Its top sits at 1,520 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.
