How well Warpath Chute holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 8°, Warpath Chute gets about 72% of the winter sun that flat ground at Windham Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 68% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th shadiest named run at Windham Mountain. Its top sits at 2,920 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.
