Black diamond Massif Du Sud, QC
La Buissonnière drops 92 vertical feet over 451 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 17° about 90 feet below the top. That's steeper than 3% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 26th steepest of 27 named runs at Massif Du Sud. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, La Buissonnière gets about 57% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's shadier than 87% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,600 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.
