It's said to be best suited for intermediate skiers and snowboarders, but there are several courses for advanced and beginners, too. It's not as crowded as other more popular ski resorts and because there are so many advanced skiers, we had a great time snowboarding down several courses and didn't have a any trouble getting around.
