Why Parc du Mont-Bellevue dries this way
Terrain & soilParc du Mont-Bellevue sits in the Sherbrooke, QC, Canada area, on loam soil that drains well over terrain that drains at an even, moderate pace. 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 994 ft, Parc du Mont-Bellevue rides N-facing ground that keeps the dirt shaded for much of the day, so moisture lingers after rain and snow is slow to clear; the gentle grade, around 4.4° on average, drains slowly enough that low spots stay soft after a storm.
