How well Claim Jumper holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 5°, Claim Jumper gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Lemmon does, December through March. That's shadier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th shadiest named run at Mt Lemmon. Its top sits at 9,030 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.
