Double black Massif Du Sud, QC
La Boisé drops 509 vertical feet over 1,743 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 560 feet below the top. That's steeper than 15% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 12th steepest of 27 named runs at Massif Du Sud. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 17°, La Boisé gets about 50% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's shadier than 93% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,340 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.
