How well Wildwood Way holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 10°, Wildwood Way gets about 110% of the winter sun that flat ground at Tamarack does, December through March. That's sunnier than 80% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Tamarack. Its top sits at 7,530 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
