How well March Hare holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 11°, March Hare gets about 79% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's shadier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 74th shadiest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 10,660 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
