Skiing Laax from Helsinki
Laax sits 1100–3018 m in Switzerland. Flying via ZRH, then a 120 km transfer. About 6.6 hours door to door.
Worth knowing. Little here for anyone who does not care about the park.
Pre-season — snow reliability. There is no meaningful snow on the models yet, so resorts are ranked on how snow-sure they are: altitude adjusted for latitude, glacier cover and the size of the ski area. Live scoring resumes automatically once the snow arrives. How we rank
