How well Peakaboo holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 11°, Peakaboo gets about 119% of the winter sun that flat ground at Willamette does, December through March. That's sunnier than 86% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Willamette. Its top sits at 5,660 feet.

Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
