How well Robson Street holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 6°, Robson Street gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Star does, December through March. That's shadier than 60% of the runs we've measured, and the 61st shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,840 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.
