How well Panorama holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 9°, Panorama gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sugarbush does, December through March. That's sunnier than 51% of the runs we've measured, and the 57th sunniest named run at Sugarbush. Its top sits at 4,060 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.
