How well Windigo holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 15°, Windigo gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th shadiest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 2,260 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.
