What the sources say
Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.
All figures come from a single reachable source (the resort's official site was unreachable this session, SSL/domain issues) — flagged as single-sourced rather than fully two-source verified.
No true reversible cable car exists — the resort's four summit lifts are all continuously-circulating gondolas.
