How well Sunnyside holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 12°, Sunnyside gets about 117% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ragged Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 85% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Ragged Mountain. Its top sits at 2,170 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
