Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 9°, Lower Tamarack gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's sunnier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 32nd sunniest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 2,760 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.
