Black diamond Stoneham, QC
Les Cantons drops 777 vertical feet over 3,830 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 26° about 1,680 feet below the top. That's steeper than 32% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 16th steepest of 41 named runs at Stoneham. It faces east.
Facing east at an average 12°, Les Cantons gets about 92% of the winter sun that flat ground at Stoneham does, December through March. That's sunnier than 63% of the runs we've measured, and the 28th sunniest named run at Stoneham. Its top sits at 1,930 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.
