How well Tin Pants holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 11°, Tin Pants gets about 81% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sugarloaf does, December through March. That's shadier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 131st shadiest named run at Sugarloaf. Its top sits at 3,590 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.
