How well Robilliard's Rush holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 23°, Robilliard's Rush gets about 38% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 98% of the runs we've measured, and the 14th shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,310 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.
