In New York ski trails in a slope that faces north usually retain their snow later in the spring than those on a slope that faces south why does this occur?

Not just NY, but everywhere during the winter - the sun moves across the southern half of the sky due to the northern hemisphere being tilted away from the sun. That means the most intense solar radiation will strike surfaces on south facing slopes.
