How well Parley's Park holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 12°, Parley's Park gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 125th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,250 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.
