How well Greely Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 18°, Greely Bowl gets about 58% 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 12th shadiest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 7,160 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.
