How well Wood Lawn holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 11°, Wood Lawn gets about 77% of the winter sun that flat ground at Solitude does, December through March. That's shadier than 59% of the runs we've measured, and the 38th shadiest named run at Solitude. Its top sits at 10,010 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.
