How well Looky Looky holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 10°, Looky Looky gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Powderhorn does, December through March. That's sunnier than 53% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Powderhorn. Its top sits at 9,150 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.
