This system of difficulty markers is relative and only valid at this area. This system is not necessarily the same as a similarly rated trail at another area. Skiers/boarders should begin with the easiest trails regardless of ability level, until familiar with the trails at the area. During periods of low visibility or other inclement weather and snow conditions, the degree of difficulty of the ski/snowboard runs may change. Please observe the posted SLOW ZONE areas by maintaining a speed no faster than the general flow of traffic. Fast and aggressive skiing/boarding will not be tolerated.
