How well Little Boulder Trail holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 17°, Little Boulder Trail gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Seven Springs does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th shadiest named run at Seven Springs. Its top sits at 2,790 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.
