Reviews & Tips (1)

Wear bright colors to help avoid collisions as there are so many unmarked intersecting runs and there is virtually no mountain saftey people patroling for out of control skies. Ski patrol does of fine job of hauling people off the mountain but is not allowed to do high speed chases of reckless guests and and they remain in ski patrol huts until accidents happen.
