How well Camp 99 holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 14°, Camp 99 gets about 84% of the winter sun that flat ground at Snowshoe Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 39th sunniest named run at Snowshoe Mountain. Its top sits at 4,660 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.
