Character
A decade of measurements here records 2.2× the snowfall a climate model puts in the same grid cell — one of the widest gaps on the roster, and a reason to trust the gauge over the model at this mountain. Its lift fleet runs to 2 gondolas among 22. 39% of its trail length is novice or easy, against 24% for North American resorts of 60–150 km, but the share is measuring a small mountain: 27 km of it.
