How well Petawawa holds snow

Snow preservationAverage

Facing east at an average 15°, Petawawa gets about 85% of the winter sun that flat ground at Ski Bromont does, December through March. That's sunnier than 54% of the runs we've measured, and the 52nd sunniest named run at Ski Bromont. Its top sits at 1,480 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.
