How well Denver Dollars holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northwest at an average 17°, Denver Dollars gets about 59% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's shadier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 6,430 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.
