How well Yee Haw holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing east at an average 19°, Yee Haw gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Shawness Peak does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 3rd sunniest named run at Shawness Peak. Its top sits at 1,760 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.
