Blue Mont Orford, QC
Slalom drops 1,007 vertical feet over 4,302 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 21° about 2,810 feet below the top. That's steeper than 51% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 37th steepest of 62 named runs at Mont Orford. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 14°, Slalom gets about 98% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Orford does, December through March. That's sunnier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 15th sunniest named run at Mont Orford. Its top sits at 2,040 feet.
With little slope to hide behind, it takes nearly the full winter sun of open ground: powder settles and turns heavy sooner after a storm, and spring snow softens early. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
