How well Niagara holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 18°, Niagara gets about 144% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Bromont does, December through March. That's sunnier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 4th sunniest named run at Ski Bromont. Its top sits at 1,780 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
