Entre-Deux drops 9 vertical feet over 205 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 20° about 10 feet below the top. That's steeper than 8% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 39th steepest of 62 named runs at Mont Orford. It faces northeast.

How well Entre-Deux holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 3°, Entre-Deux gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 21st shadiest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 2,310 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.
