Answer
Hi,

I do not work in the ski area industry so I can't answer this question thoroughly. There are a number of people that I know who have a lot of expertise in this. It would be up to them if they want to answer your question as they are not participants in the All Experts program. They are:

1) Ward Bond, Loch Lomond Ski Area, Thunder Bay, Ontario
2) Noel Later, Holiday Mtn., La Riviere, Manitoba
3) Gary Mackinnon, Springhill Winter Park, Winnipeg, Manitoba

I suggest that you do a web search and see if you can connect with them. Good luck.
