How well Sneaky Pete holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 10°, Sneaky Pete gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Baker does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th sunniest named run at Mt Baker. Its top sits at 4,290 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.
