Facing north at an average 9°, 9A Forêt des merveilles gets about 74% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Sutton does, December through March. That's shadier than 65% of the runs we've measured, and the 51st shadiest named run at Mont Sutton. Its top sits at 1,500 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.
