Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Lower Tomahawk gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Okemo does, December through March. That's sunnier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 111th sunniest named run at Okemo. Its top sits at 2,710 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
