How well Pyromania holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing west at an average 21°, Pyromania gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's sunnier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 40th sunniest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 7,150 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.
