How well Super Frank! holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Super Frank! gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powder Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 50th shadiest named run at Powder Mountain. Its top sits at 8,350 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.
