How well Tin Horn holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 7°, Tin Horn gets about 114% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's sunnier than 83% of the runs we've measured, and the 11th sunniest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 9,780 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.
