Escapade drops 254 vertical feet over 1,203 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 22° about 450 feet below the top. That's steeper than 53% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 34th steepest of 62 named runs at Mont Orford. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 12°, Escapade gets about 76% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's shadier than 62% of the runs we've measured, and the 26th shadiest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 1,950 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.
