How well Toomey's Trail holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Toomey's Trail gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Schweitzer does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th shadiest named run at Schweitzer. Its top sits at 5,930 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.
