How well Messerli's Mile holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing west at an average 22°, Messerli's Mile gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st sunniest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 6,620 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.
