How well Easy Way holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 5°, Easy Way gets about 107% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's sunnier than 77% of the runs we've measured, and the 19th sunniest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 9,770 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.
