Patchy - Insufficient cover for skiing and boarding. Only suitable for snowplay if the run is accessible. May involve a short walk from car park area
Poor - Cover is broken and skiers are very limited in choice of lines. There may be exposed grass areas if the run is open. Cover is soft and thin; snow will most likely be brown in places
Fair - Cover is extensive but not complete. There may be moderately sized exposed hazards including grass/vegetation, which are easily avoidable. Cover will most likely be soft and thin in areas.
Good - Almost complete cover. Some exposed hazards that rarely impede skiing. The surface may vary from dry to soft.
Very Good - Complete cover of snow with occasional exposed hazards that do not impede skiing. The surface is dry or softening very late in the day.
Excellent - Complete snow cover with no exposed hazards and a dry surface.
