How well Fresh Aire holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 9°, Fresh Aire gets about 121% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Shasta does, December through March. That's sunnier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Mt Shasta. Its top sits at 6,130 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.
