Blue Le Massif, QC
La Martine drops 739 vertical feet over 2,744 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 1,630 feet below the top. That's steeper than 49% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 47th steepest of 67 named runs at Le Massif. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 16°, La Martine gets about 60% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's shadier than 84% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 2,190 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
