How well Lower Crackerjack holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 11°, Lower Crackerjack gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sugarbush does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 60th shadiest named run at Sugarbush. Its top sits at 1,980 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.
