Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 18°, La Dominique Maltais gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 46th sunniest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 2,580 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
