I think the old adage "if you want to make a small fortune in the ski industry, start with a large fortune!" likely applies!! :lol:

3 lifts, 1,400 feet of vert, and 1000+ acres doesn't sounds like a bad deal.
Not to turn this into a ski sundown thread, but they've proved to be quite successful considering the limited resources. With a solid business plan ran by someone with experience and knowledge of the industry, I don't see why it couldn't prosper, especially given the low asking price.

Wonder if someone with a bunch of cash buys it and keeps it as a private ski area for themselves. Probably piss off the locals pretty good in the process.

I wonder how much the debt is?

100 inches of natural snow per year and no snowmaking. Sounds like a pretty serious operation.

The trail layout looks awkward, with most of the trails off the upper lift requiring you to ski all the way to the base with some long traverses. However there's huge potential above and beyond the present lift summit, two big east-facing bowls with another 2,300 vertical feet. It's not far from Boise.
According to Facebook, they closed in mid February last year. I suspect it would take some serious investment to get a longer season.

Deposit of $149,000? I thought it was $149K to buy. Is it $149K asking in cash?
