Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Lower-elevation sensitivityDense 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 963 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 1.4 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 26,736 persons, about 1028 persons/hour per lift and 730 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 15.0 km, averaging about 0.6 km of lift line per lift.
