La Volte-Face drops 85 vertical feet over 340 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 19° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 82% of the 3,109 green runs we've measured in North America, and the 22nd steepest of 27 named runs at Massif Du Sud. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 15°, La Volte-Face gets about 54% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's shadier than 90% of the runs we've measured, and the 12th shadiest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,370 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.
