Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Useful upper altitudeStrong vertical rangeDense lift accessHigh published capacity
Altitude resilience
The upper mountain has a useful altitude advantage in warm or marginal snow periods. The 1282 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 2.3 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 128,940 persons, about 1653 persons/hour per lift and 712 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 69.9 km, averaging about 0.9 km of lift line per lift.

Slope angle
-
Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.
The combined steeper share is about 14%, leaving 86% as moderate or gentler terrain. Most of the ski area is broadly accessible, but advanced or expert experience is useful on selected sectors, particularly when surfaces are firm or visibility is poor.

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.

Firstly, we were very lucky to have a big dump of snow on the day we arrived which obviously set up the conditions perfectly for the week. The scenery is awesome and the extent of the runs available..
