How well Accès holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing north at an average 11°, Accès gets about 68% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's shadier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th shadiest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 1,660 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.
