How well Easy Turns holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Easy Turns gets about 78% of the winter sun that flat ground at Shawness Peak does, December through March. That's shadier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 29th shadiest named run at Shawness Peak. Its top sits at 690 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.
