How well East Face holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 22°, East Face gets about 86% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 138th sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,570 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.
