How well 4 km holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northeast at an average 8°, 4 km gets about 87% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's sunnier than 56% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th sunniest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 1,480 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
