How well Upper Lookout Ridge holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Upper Lookout Ridge gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 74th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,270 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.
