Lower-elevation sensitivityLimited vertical rangeDense lift accessHigher terrain cost
Altitude resilience
Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude.
Lift infrastructure
About 1.7 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network.

Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m. The 11% share below 1,000 m is the most vulnerable to mild spells, rain and late-season snow loss, while it may also provide sheltered or tree-lined skiing where local terrain permits.

Slope angle
-
Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.
Only about 2% is classified in steeper angle groups; roughly 98% is moderate or gentler. The mapped angle profile is predominantly non-technical, with limited need for expert-level technique.

Orientation
-
Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.
West-facing terrain is prominent, increasing afternoon sun exposure. Surface quality may therefore change more noticeably later in the ski day.

What makes this resort different
Weather-sensitive lower mountain
Mountain character
Rothenthurm is best understood as a weather-sensitive lower mountain: lower elevation and/or weaker snow-reliability evidence imply greater dependence on favourable weather cycles.
Top elevation 1,330 m
Snow-reliability 30/100
The trade-off
Trips chosen with a close eye on the current weather and snow cycle rather than structural snow resilience.
Lower elevation and/or weaker snow-reliability evidence increase dependence on favourable conditions.
