How well Mid-Mtn Cutoff holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 6°, Mid-Mtn Cutoff gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 93rd sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,790 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
