How well Stillness holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 10°, Stillness gets about 80% of the winter sun that flat ground at Waterville Valley does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 31st shadiest named run at Waterville Valley. Its top sits at 2,500 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.
