Black diamond Le Massif, QC
La Charlevoix (Bas) drops 751 vertical feet over 3,117 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 28° about 220 feet below the top. That's steeper than 47% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 10th steepest of 67 named runs at Le Massif. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 14°, La Charlevoix (Bas) gets about 101% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's sunnier than 72% of the runs we've measured, and the 27th sunniest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 870 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.
