Ski Area & Base Area Planning
We have accumulated over three decades of ski area planning expertise. While utilizing the latest terrain analysis and modelling software, as well as our extensive on-mountain experience, we have developed a planning approach to ski areas that is predicated on a total mountain experience instead of a technocratic approach.
We help create that experience by analyzing the landscape and using software to assess viewscapes, exposure, aspects, slope and numerous other physical and environmental variables supplemented by on-the-ground trotting and analysis.
We assess ski lift and ski run capacity, as well as overall mountain and resort capacity. We consider ancillary activities. We determine the optimal mix of real estate, retail an convention space. We plan infrastructure and services and take measures to safeguard the environment in every decision we make.
What does this mean? We are able to design and plan for the best use of the land given a defined set of objectives.
