Character

8 of its 8 lifts are surface tows, and there is no gondola or cable car — the lift fleet says small hill more plainly than the trail count does. It is a small hill: 5 km of trails, against 46 km for the median European resort on a pass. Most of what the independents' passes sell is this size.
