How well Schipper's Streak holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 9°, Schipper's Streak 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 71st shadiest named run at Sugarloaf. Its top sits at 2,080 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.
