Why Parc des Sommets dries this way
Terrain & soilParc des Sommets sits in the Bromont, QC, Canada area, on loam soil that drains well over terrain that sheds water and dries quickly. Heavy tree cover holds the damp in, so it stays wet longer than the sky overhead would suggest. Whether it’s worth riding comes down to how that ground sheds and holds water after rain. That’s exactly what Loam tracks, hour by hour. At 1,280 ft, Parc des Sommets rides WNW-facing ground that gets its strongest sun in the afternoon, so morning laps can stay tacky after overnight moisture; the rolling grade, around 8.6° on average, drains steadily rather than pooling.
