Black diamond Mont Sutton, QC
Escapade drops 834 vertical feet over 2,747 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 730 feet below the top. That's steeper than 38% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 17th steepest of 61 named runs at Mont Sutton. It faces north.
Facing north at an average 18°, Escapade gets about 52% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Sutton does, December through March. That's shadier than 92% of the runs we've measured, and the 9th shadiest named run at Mont Sutton. Its top sits at 2,730 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.
