How well La Stoneham holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 17°, La Stoneham gets about 94% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stoneham does, December through March. That's sunnier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Stoneham. Its top sits at 1,250 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.
