Double black Massif Du Sud, QC
Loin-Loin drops 414 vertical feet over 2,907 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 1,750 feet below the top. That's steeper than 14% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 13th steepest of 27 named runs at Massif Du Sud. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 9°, Loin-Loin gets about 93% of the winter sun that flat ground at Massif Du Sud does, December through March. That's sunnier than 64% of the runs we've measured, and the sunniest named run at Massif Du Sud. Its top sits at 2,860 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
