How well No Alibi holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing east at an average 21°, No Alibi gets about 115% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mt Spokane does, December through March. That's sunnier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th sunniest named run at Mt Spokane. Its top sits at 5,850 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.
