How well Centennial holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Centennial gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 48th shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 6,040 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.
