@Quartz: if I'd done that you'd have a point, but I didn't so... ;)
My comment merely pointed out that Nevis have less than 10% of the resources that Sölden do (Nevis revenue is ~5% of Sölden, profit even less) so expecting similar standards isn't exactly fair. Which is not to say that Nevis couldn't/shouldn't have done a better job; I've already agreed with what you've both said there *shrug*

@redrook: Ha, ok I 100% see what you mean! Lower part through the trees looks sick, but not a single berm on the upper? Weird. And despite the comments on that vid, that definitely makes it harder and sketchier for noobs (like me ;) ) too.
Though he does also note that lack of resources/time played a part...

@redrook: It's not really a fair comparison! The Sölden lift company (just the lifts, not the hotels etc) has annual revenues of over €50 million and the valley generates the most tourism stays in Austria outside Vienna. Nevis, even before corona, only generated revenues of £2-3 million a year and (according to Companies House records) seems to frequently operate at a loss.
