How well Roy's Run holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing west at an average 18°, Roy's Run gets about 115% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's sunnier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 7,730 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.
