A mission that can be vital
A closed slope or a sign indicating danger; follow the instructions and the signs. Benevolent guards, the ski patrollers, scrutinize the ski area every day for your safety.
The ski patroller first and foremost fulfils a mission of prevention and rescue for skiers, but he also ensures the quality of the ski area.

- Opening and closing of the slopes,
