How well Outer Limits holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 21°, Outer Limits gets about 168% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's sunnier than 100% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 7,710 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.
