How well Timber holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 10°, Timber gets about 82% of the winter sun that flat ground at Soldier Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 52% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Soldier Mountain. Its top sits at 6,600 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.
