How well Thanks for the Memories holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 30°, Thanks for the Memories gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowbird does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 64th shadiest named run at Snowbird. Its top sits at 10,480 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.
