How well Exhibition holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 13°, Exhibition gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pico Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 67% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th shadiest named run at Pico Mountain. Its top sits at 2,190 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.
