How well Rowley's Run holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 13°, Rowley's Run gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 43rd shadiest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 3,090 feet.

Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
