Excellent place, really good quiet runs during the week, little busy on the weekend. Plenty of runs for intermediate riders and good for beginners. Would go again.

These slopes are a particularly good place to learn while starting out especially if you have kids but also offer some more challenging slopes for more advanced skiers. Most importantly it was never too busy. The scenery is magnificent!
