    Skibum from United States writes:

    Great hill with lots of terrain for all levels. Terrific value and never any lift lines more than a minute or two. They have a great hill at a great value and they know it. Snobbish, unhelpful people operating it (not all but, enough to notice when you run into one. I didn't know you could power trip selling lift tickets, they showed me that you can).
