How well Upper White Pine holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing southwest at an average 5°, Upper White Pine gets about 111% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's sunnier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 46th sunniest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,710 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.
