How well Getmedown holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 8°, Getmedown gets about 140% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's sunnier than 96% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 7,760 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.
