Green Le Massif, QC
L'Ancienne drops 732 vertical feet over 4,427 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 23° about 630 feet below the top. That's steeper than 96% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 36th steepest of 67 named runs at Le Massif. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 10°, L'Ancienne gets about 103% of the winter sun that flat ground at Le Massif does, December through March. That's sunnier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 24th sunniest named run at Le Massif. Its top sits at 910 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.
