How well Rock'N Roll holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing east at an average 20°, Rock'N Roll gets about 119% of the winter sun that flat ground at Maverick Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th sunniest named run at Maverick Mountain. Its top sits at 7,950 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.
