How well Lakeside holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 8°, Lakeside gets about 111% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Rose does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Mt Rose. Its top sits at 9,290 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
