How well Committed holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 12°, Committed gets about 62% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Snow does, December through March. That's shadier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Mount Snow. Its top sits at 3,580 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.
