How well Shredwood Forest holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 19°, Shredwood Forest gets about 56% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stratton does, December through March. That's shadier than 88% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Stratton. Its top sits at 3,740 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.
