How well Hurtzwinkle's Delight holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing west at an average 23°, Hurtzwinkle's Delight gets about 78% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 64th shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 4,580 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.
