How well Can't Dog 1 holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 18°, Can't Dog 1 gets about 66% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sugarloaf does, December through March. That's shadier than 78% of the runs we've measured, and the 70th shadiest named run at Sugarloaf. Its top sits at 3,470 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.
