How well White Rock holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 14°, White Rock gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at White Pine does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at White Pine. Its top sits at 9,050 feet.

Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
