How well Enchanted Forest holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 12°, Enchanted Forest gets about 75% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunday River does, December through March. That's shadier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 60th shadiest named run at Sunday River. Its top sits at 1,470 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.
