Ski pass
-
Published ticket prices and terrain-adjusted value.
The adult day pass has a higher cost per published slope kilometre; location, infrastructure and convenience may be more important than terrain scale alone.

Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
The mapped terrain is entirely above 1,000 m and is predominantly above 2,000 m. This generally supports colder snow retention and reduces dependence on vulnerable low-elevation return terrain.

Slope angle
-
Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.
The combined steeper share is about 13%, leaving 87% as moderate or gentler terrain. Most of the ski area is broadly accessible, but advanced or expert experience is useful on selected sectors, particularly when surfaces are firm or visibility is poor.

Orientation
-
Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.
North-facing terrain is prominent, generally favouring colder snow retention and slower daytime softening. Sunnier aspects may still change more quickly during mild weather.

What makes this resort different
North-facing snow keeper
Mountain character
Avers is best understood as a north-facing snow keeper: a strong cool-aspect share combines with useful snow-reliability and altitude evidence.
48% north-facing terrain
Snow-reliability 63/100
The trade-off
Skiers prioritising cooler aspects and snow preservation over maximum sunshine.
The structural advantage is snow retention, not necessarily scale, access or terrain breadth.
