How well Haute Tension holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing east at an average 21°, Haute Tension gets about 95% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's sunnier than 66% of the runs we've measured, and the 88th sunniest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 2,760 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.
