How well Lamonga Pass holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 12°, Lamonga Pass gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Spokane does, December through March. That's shadier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th shadiest named run at Mt Spokane. Its top sits at 5,000 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.
