We visited on a Friday, during the day & it was not too busy. Lots of runs, 5 lifts - 2 restaurants, that were both decent. $72 for a lift ticket felt like a lot, however we had a great day & the people who took lessons had the lift ticket included. Worth a visit

Amazing experience. Great runs. Lots of diversity in skill and terrain. Restaurant was amazing and priced reasonably especially for a resort. All around super good experience. Will be back for sure.
