You ride Snowboarders get a little extra time at the top of each lift to strap in, and Plan Your Day shows the snowboard versions of the ready-made day plans. The guides tailor their advice too.

Your ability (or the lowest in your group) Sets the toughest terrain your routes and day plans include, how long each run takes, and the level the guides plan for. Skiing with others? Pick the least experienced person's level so everyone can follow.

Exploration style How the route list balances favorites and new terrain. Stick to favorites is happy to repeat good runs and stay in one area; See everything ranks runs and areas you haven't done yet today higher.

Lifts Express & gondola only leaves the slower fixed-grip chairs out of your lift choices, so routes use the faster lifts. All lifts includes every chair.

Route options

Route complexity How many trails a route can link together before it ranks lower. Simple keeps routes to 1–3 trails, which are easier to follow; higher settings allow longer, more involved routes.

Similar routes to hide (diversity %) Hides route options that mostly repeat one already listed. Lower is stricter (fewer, more varied options); 0 turns it off and shows everything.

Routes per destination The most route options listed for each destination.

Include terrain parks Off leaves out routes that go through terrain parks. On lets them appear.
