    Daniel from Argentina writes:

    No es para temporada alta.
    Dada la cantidad limitada de medios de elevación, y la no inversión en abrir mas zonas esquiables en la zona intermedia principalmente, hay que esperar mas 30 minutos en interminables filas que además te terminan pisoteando las tablas, sin ningún tipo de respeto.

    No es para temporada baja o media. Aun habiendo buena cantidad de nieve, como va menos gente, no abren muchos medios de elevación, y se termina sucediendo lo mismo de las esperas para subir.
