How well Coyote Park Trail holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 7°, Coyote Park Trail gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wolf Creek does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 48th shadiest named run at Wolf Creek. Its top sits at 11,470 feet.

Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
