How well Silverhorn Terrain Park holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 13°, Silverhorn Terrain Park gets about 97% of the winter sun that flat ground at Showdown does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Showdown. Its top sits at 7,470 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
