Ski de montagne

Ski de montagne is a ski touring route in Maine, about 20 miles from the town of Daaquam. It's a short outing, with the whole trip covering roughly half a mile and a total climb of about 235 feet. The route is out and back, and the high point is about 2,059 feet, with the low point at about 1,924 feet. Winter is the natural season for skiing here. Typical averages from the nearby Clayton Lake weather station show January highs around 20°F and lows near -4°F. That station sits well below the route, so temperatures on the higher ground run cooler. Ascension, another ski touring route, is about half a mile away. For hiking, Sentier De La Traversée and Sentier Des Passerelles are both within about a mile and a quarter.
