How well Funnel Cloud holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 27°, Funnel Cloud gets about 147% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,950 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.
