How well Extension holds snow

Snow preservationGood

Facing northeast at an average 12°, Extension gets about 73% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's shadier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 16th shadiest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 2,230 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.
