How well Lower Juliet holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Lower Juliet gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Ashland does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th shadiest named run at Mt Ashland. Its top sits at 6,670 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.
