How well Lower Wolverine holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 13°, Lower Wolverine gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Windham Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 18th shadiest named run at Windham Mountain. Its top sits at 2,340 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.
