How well G-Force holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 27°, G-Force gets about 54% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,280 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.
