How well Black Lake holds snow

Snow preservationBelow average

Facing west at an average 12°, Black Lake gets about 102% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Bromont does, December through March. That's sunnier than 74% of the runs we've measured, and the 36th sunniest named run at Ski Bromont. Its top sits at 870 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.
