How well Pucker Brush holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing west at an average 31°, Pucker Brush gets about 113% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's sunnier than 82% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th sunniest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 10,490 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.
