How well Trapper's Lynx holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 7°, Trapper's Lynx gets about 59% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's shadier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the 49th shadiest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 4,160 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.
