Green Le Massif, QC
La Coulée drops 780 vertical feet over 5,764 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 2,870 feet below the top. That's steeper than 87% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 49th steepest of 67 named runs at Le Massif. It faces south.
Facing south at an average 8°, La Coulée gets about 130% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's sunnier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd sunniest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 1,440 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
