How well Shadow Lands holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 26°, Shadow Lands gets about 124% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 9,250 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.
