How well Toilet Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Toilet Bowl gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Baldy does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Mt Baldy. Its top sits at 8,560 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.
