How well Super Gauge Trail holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 17°, Super Gauge Trail gets about 83% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's shadier than 50% of the runs we've measured, and the 86th shadiest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 11,120 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.
