点评:We skied the area as two couples. The weather provided plenty of fresh snow during the week so the powder hounds were blessed with great conditions.
Being piste skiers there were times when there was too much snow on the slopes, the snow having fallen after the piste bashers had worked the night before.
It was our first visit to Verbier. We knew prices would be on the high side but they were significantly higher than expected. The area was tricky to navigate due to the lack of signage. Too many of the lifts were old and slow and the number of drag lifts well in excess of other cheaper resorts we've visited. The lift system opened at 8.45am which seemed late, and the upper lifts started to shut down at 3.30pm. There was a tendency for operators of the gondolas to pack people into the cabins to a very unpleasant level. They needed to run more frequently. On a few days not all areas were open thus limiting skiing. Understandably safety checks are necessary after overnight snow, but we were left feeling checks could have been started earlier and completed more quickly. For the price of the ski pass we felt the lift system should have been better. It was fun to explore another ski area, but don't feel we would return to Verbier. Other resorts are cheaper and have superior facilities.

作为滑雪道滑雪者,有时山坡上的雪太多了,这些雪是在前一天晚上滑雪道工人工作后落下的。
这是我们第一次访问韦尔比耶。我们知道价格会偏高,但价格比预期的要高得多。由于缺乏标识,该地区很难导航。太多的缆车又旧又慢,拖曳式缆车的数量远远超过我们访问过的其他便宜度假村。缆车系统在早上 8:45 开放,似乎有点晚了,上层缆车在下午 3:30 开始关闭。缆车操作员倾向于将人们挤进车厢,这非常令人不快。他们需要更频繁地运行。有几天并非所有区域都开放,因此限制了滑雪。可以理解的是,在夜间降雪后,安全检查是必要的,但我们觉得检查可以更早开始,并更快地完成。对于滑雪通行证的价格,我们觉得升降系统应该更好。探索另一个滑雪区很有趣,但我觉得我们不会再回到韦尔比耶了。其他度假村更便宜,设施也更优越。
