Season Info
The ski season typically runs from late June through September, dependent on natural snowfall. Sitting at 1,750 meters, the mountain's elevation and aspect help maintain good snow conditions throughout the winter months. The terrain features excellent snow-holding characteristics, particularly in the upper bowl, where deeper coverage tends to persist well into the spring.
