How well Kill The Banker holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing west at an average 23°, Kill The Banker gets about 122% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's sunnier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 8th sunniest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 5,560 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.
