Double black Mont Orford, QC
Intrepide drops 268 vertical feet over 627 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 35° about 430 feet below the top. That's steeper than 44% of the 2,251 double black runs we've measured in North America, and the 9th steepest of 62 named runs at Mont Orford. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 26°, Intrepide gets about 69% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's shadier than 73% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 2,680 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.
