How well Meadow Trail holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 9°, Meadow Trail gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Soda Springs does, December through March. That's shadier than 61% of the runs we've measured, and the 10th shadiest named run at Soda Springs. Its top sits at 7,010 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.
