How well Round Top holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Round Top gets about 86% of the winter sun that flat ground at Swain Resort does, December through March. That's sunnier than 55% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th sunniest named run at Swain Resort. Its top sits at 1,510 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.
