How well Drifter Link holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 10°, Drifter Link gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the 23rd sunniest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 2,900 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.
