How well Bucked Off holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 17°, Bucked Off gets about 48% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 94% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 4,090 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
