How well Sigi's Bowl holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 24°, Sigi's Bowl gets about 99% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sun Valley does, December through March. That's sunnier than 71% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st sunniest named run at Sun Valley. Its top sits at 8,870 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
