How well Canntastic holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Canntastic gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 48th shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,510 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.
