How well Pete's Lane holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 6°, Pete's Lane gets about 47% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sun Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 95% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th shadiest named run at Sun Valley. Its top sits at 8,090 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.
