How well Dubreuil holds snow

Snow preservationExcellent

Facing northeast at an average 28°, Dubreuil gets about 41% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's shadier than 97% of the runs we've measured, and the 2nd shadiest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 1,730 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.
