How well La Villageoise holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 12°, La Villageoise gets about 67% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's shadier than 75% of the runs we've measured, and the 25th shadiest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,950 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.
