How well Wilbur holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northwest at an average 13°, Wilbur gets about 70% of the winter sun that flat ground at Windham Mountain does, December through March. That's shadier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd shadiest named run at Windham Mountain. Its top sits at 2,000 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.
