How well Victoria Shoot holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 18°, Victoria Shoot gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Whiteface Mountain does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 58th sunniest named run at Whiteface Mountain. Its top sits at 2,790 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.
