How well Whiskey Jack holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing west at an average 17°, Whiskey Jack gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Panorama does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Panorama. Its top sits at 4,850 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.
