How well Mirage holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 16°, Mirage gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 93rd shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,650 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.
