How well Spirit Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 22°, Spirit Bowl gets about 40% 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 17th shadiest named run at Silver Star. Its top sits at 5,190 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
