How well Slide Out holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 6°, Slide Out gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Whiteface Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Whiteface Mountain. Its top sits at 3,400 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.
