How well Snow Rodeo holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing west at an average 21°, Snow Rodeo gets about 120% of the winter sun that flat ground at Revelstoke does, December through March. That's sunnier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th sunniest named run at Revelstoke. Its top sits at 7,290 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.
