Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Lower-elevation sensitivityDense lift accessHigh published capacityHigher terrain cost
Altitude resilience
Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude.
Lift infrastructure
About 1.1 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 3,814 persons, about 636 persons/hour per lift and 561 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 3.6 km, averaging about 0.6 km of lift line per lift.

Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
The mapped terrain is concentrated between 1,000 and 2,000 m, with no terrain below 1,000 m. Snow conditions therefore depend mainly on mid-mountain exposure, weather cycles and snowmaking rather than on vulnerable valley-floor sectors.

Slope angle
-
Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.
Only about 7% is classified in steeper angle groups; roughly 93% is moderate or gentler. The mapped angle profile is predominantly non-technical, with limited need for expert-level technique.

Orientation
-
Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.
North-facing terrain is prominent, generally favouring colder snow retention and slower daytime softening. Sunnier aspects may still change more quickly during mild weather.
