How well Roberto's holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Roberto's gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowmass does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 91st shadiest named run at Snowmass. Its top sits at 12,060 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.
