How well Sten's Run holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southeast at an average 11°, Sten's Run gets about 124% of the winter sun that flat ground at Soldier Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 89% of the runs we've measured, and the 7th sunniest named run at Soldier Mountain. Its top sits at 6,940 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.
