How well Flora holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 6°, Flora gets about 75% of the winter sun that flat ground at Wolf Creek does, December through March. That's shadier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 50th shadiest named run at Wolf Creek. Its top sits at 10,740 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.
