How well Easiest Way Down holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 9°, Easiest Way Down gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Teton Pass does, December through March. That's sunnier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 30th sunniest named run at Teton Pass. Its top sits at 7,090 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.
