La Sidney-Dawes drops 622 vertical feet over 3,082 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 18° about 1,120 feet below the top. That's steeper than 26% of the 5,615 blue runs we've measured in North America, and the 56th steepest of 74 named runs at Mont-Sainte-Anne. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 12°, La Sidney-Dawes gets about 65% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont-Sainte-Anne does, December through March. That's shadier than 79% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Mont-Sainte-Anne. Its top sits at 2,410 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.
