How well Huckleberry holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 12°, Huckleberry gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 59% of the runs we've measured, and the 51st shadiest named run at Silver Mountain. Its top sits at 5,340 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.
