Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
High-alpine resilienceStrong vertical rangeHigh published capacityBelow-average snow rating
Altitude resilience
The high-alpine top elevation is a structural advantage for retaining colder snow, although exposure can increase wind and visibility sensitivity. The 1507 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 3.5 slope km per lift indicates a broadly balanced lift-to-terrain ratio. Published hourly capacity is 145,948 persons, about 1717 persons/hour per lift and 487 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 85.7 km, averaging about 1.0 km of lift line per lift.
