What these numbers mean
The two most revealing numbers for Ilgaz are slope length and vertical drop. Length tells you how long the resort will keep you occupied; vertical tells you how long the descents are. They do not always move together: a small network with a big vertical means a short but steep resort.
Slope length per lift (1.5 km) is not a quality measure; it only shows how spread out the network is relative to its lifts. A low value can mean more lifts serving the same runs, and therefore shorter queues.
Three things you will not find here: piste count, prices and season dates. All three are defined differently by each resort and cannot be sourced consistently; putting a non-comparable number in a comparison table misleads the reader.
