How well Lazy Moose holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing south at an average 13°, Lazy Moose gets about 145% of the winter sun that flat ground at Teton Pass does, December through March. That's sunnier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Teton Pass. Its top sits at 6,990 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.
