How well La Crête holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing northwest at an average 6°, La Crête gets about 89% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's sunnier than 58% of the runs we've measured, and the 98th sunniest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 2,860 feet.

It gets an ordinary dose of sun: powder lasts a typical amount of time, and spring snow softens on a normal schedule. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
