Creator's Key Takeaways

the chairlift ticket was 15. I read online that they were 14 and if I had bought it you know a month ago online it was 12

it's not really that crowded there's a lot more people here a couple hours ago but it's getting on to two o'clock

so don't lean on it but yes enjoy your day here enjoy your day here
