    “A snow-sure resort tends to operate for a longer season, from early winter into spring. This helps to maximise revenue opportunities.“

    “Skiers and snowboarders will choose resorts depending on snow conditions to maximise their experience. Therefore, resorts with inconsistent snow coverage may not attract as many visitors, especially during peak holiday periods“
