How well Showtime holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 22°, Showtime gets about 134% of the winter sun that flat ground at Maverick Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Maverick Mountain. Its top sits at 8,430 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.
