How well Lost In The Woods holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 10°, Lost In The Woods gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mammoth does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 83rd shadiest named run at Mammoth. Its top sits at 9,420 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.
