Black diamond Mont Tremblant, QC
Les Rapides drops 773 vertical feet over 3,815 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 31° about 1,440 feet below the top. That's steeper than 65% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 9th steepest of 128 named runs at Mont Tremblant. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 12°, Les Rapides gets about 112% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's sunnier than 81% of the runs we've measured, and the 51st sunniest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 2,130 feet.
Angled toward the low winter sun, it bakes: powder turns heavy soon after a storm, and in spring it softens early in the day and refreezes hard overnight. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
