Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Dense 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 1176 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 2.8 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 27,000 persons, about 1688 persons/hour per lift and 600 per slope kilometre.
