How well Wayne's Woods holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 20°, Wayne's Woods gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Schweitzer does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 40th shadiest named run at Schweitzer. Its top sits at 6,080 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.
