How well Broadway holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 14°, Broadway gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Solitude does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th sunniest named run at Solitude. Its top sits at 9,280 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
