As indicated in the Ski Area Management website, click on the link below to sample a formula for determining ski area and lift capacity. For further explanation and a sample calculation check out the companion article titled, Half Empty or Half Full, by Doug Cahill and Mike Larson which appears in the November 2001 issue of SAM and on our website (click on "Current Issue").
