Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

Strong vertical rangeDense lift accessHigh published capacity
Altitude resilience Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude. The 1287 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure About 2.6 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 84,707 persons, about 1802 persons/hour per lift and 689 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 54.3 km, averaging about 1.2 km of lift line per lift.
