How well Aabye Road holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 28°, Aabye Road gets about 28% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 100% of the runs we've measured, and the shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,320 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.

Nearby at Silver Star
