Are Mount Ruapehu ski fields too crowded?
Hi neighbours - It has been questioned that "it's no surprise this stunning alpine environment literally markets itself but without a total visitor capacity cap, what is the cost to the environment and quality of experience?".

What's your experience here? Do you think it's too crowded?
