How well Ligne de Pente holds snow

Snow preservationPoor

Facing southwest at an average 17°, Ligne de Pente gets about 127% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mont Tremblant does, December through March. That's sunnier than 91% of the runs we've measured, and the 13th sunniest named run at Mont Tremblant. Its top sits at 1,920 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.
