How well Ledge holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Ledge gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Snow does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 54th sunniest named run at Mount Snow. Its top sits at 3,370 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
