How well CAt-Catofe holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing north at an average 4°, CAt-Catofe gets about 61% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wildcat Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Wildcat Mountain. Its top sits at 3,270 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.
