How well Cat Walk holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 7°, Cat Walk gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Silver Summit does, December through March. That's sunnier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 5th sunniest named run at Silver Summit. Its top sits at 4,670 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.
