How well Lower Lazy River holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 10°, Lower Lazy River gets about 104% of the winter sun that flat ground at Sunday River does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Sunday River. Its top sits at 1,500 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.
