How well Twin Lakes holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 8°, Twin Lakes gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Pomerelle does, December through March. That's shadier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th shadiest named run at Pomerelle. Its top sits at 8,410 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
