How well Concord holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 24°, Concord gets about 54% of the winter sun that flat ground at Solitude does, December through March. That's shadier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Solitude. Its top sits at 9,780 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.
