How well Hay Fever holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 16°, Hay Fever gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 41st shadiest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 4,920 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.
