How well TBD holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 17°, TBD gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Solitude does, December through March. That's sunnier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 17th sunniest named run at Solitude. Its top sits at 9,010 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.
