How well ABC holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 9°, ABC gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Sutton does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd shadiest named run at Mont Sutton. Its top sits at 1,780 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.
