How well Vista holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 18°, Vista gets about 63% of the winter sun that flat ground at Park City does, December through March. That's shadier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 50th shadiest named run at Park City. Its top sits at 8,070 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.
