How well Jackrabbit Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 21°, Jackrabbit Bowl gets about 130% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's sunnier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 7,900 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.
