How well Accès D holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 10°, Accès D gets about 105% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's sunnier than 76% of the runs we've measured, and the 20th sunniest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 1,100 feet.

With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
