How well Village Way holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing north at an average 7°, Village Way gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Winter Park does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 68th sunniest named run at Winter Park. Its top sits at 11,990 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.
