L'Écolière drops 297 vertical feet over 1,439 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 40 feet below the top. That's steeper than 75% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 24th steepest of 27 named runs at Massif Du Sud. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, L'Écolière gets about 63% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's shadier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,010 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.
