How well Upper Stacy's holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 29°, Upper Stacy's gets about 44% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pebble Creek does, December through March. That's shadier than 96% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Pebble Creek. Its top sits at 8,470 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.
