No current lifts on property will be able to be used. The riblit is the only one maybe but good luck with that. Pomas a junk and can’t find parts and the other is a Hall and that’s completely toast. So new lift right off the bat. I’m sure the snowmaking is in the same state as lifts. $10m is...

I’ll tell you how the winter goes in April

This is not going to happen. It’s a dream. Any investor would have better luck putting it all on black at the casino

Lol at buying tickets. Sure, I’ve done it here and there but I just weasel my way in at most places. You always know someone, somewhere at sometime

I’ll be here Thursday to get some quick turns in before heading out for a 2 day tuna fishing trip off Jersey somewhere. I’ve been to ski Dubai so of course need to check this indoor place off the list.

How about dirt and slush?

I even remember alignment of new lifts and survey work we had done. I could probably draw it out on top of google earth from what I remember. It was quite interesting

I actually had the plans for the PC to Brighton/BCC connect. That was very close to happening. Right before the “I forgot to renew my lease shit show”. BCC/LCC connect would be easy logistically. And quite mellow terrain even. But that’s more forest service land as the other connect is almost...

I lived there for 13 years. The area doesn’t hold snow. At all. I also remember when the only thing around that lake was the camp ground and boat launch. Also there is no water. What a stupid project in general. Glad I don’t live there anymore. It’s a matter of time before that area burns...

I’ve said it many times before, I hope guests like skiing grass a dirt. Low elevation south facing terrain that hardly ever holds snow. Also this entire project is a blunder of the Jordenelle area. But that areas been trash for years now ever since Wasatch County let anyone build anything.

The EB5 program is a joke and should not be allowed in VT or anywhere in our country. Peak Resorts and Mount Blow took full advantage of it to funnel money into their borderline bankrupt business. Used all the money in the most nonsense ways. Glad those in charge are gone and Vail is now there.

“Hey look at all these mid level jobs” Gunstock - “we will pay you 50% more then going rate for this position” …reads shit show about place from last year. Yeah no thanks. No boss, peeps don’t want to walk into a dumpster fire that just got extinguished

They have been looking for a new Mt Ops director now for a few months. Finally posted the job. Could imagine it’s hard to fill with anyone keeping eye on what happened last year.

New ski area should be on the west side. All that land is privately owned, gets decent snowfall, the west side of the city is growing, spread traffic out. Once upon a time ago there were plans for a ski area over there.

I think Gondola and snow sheds are the best answer (besides going back to 2010 level of business and nonIkon pass and 50% more people in SLC) The estimated costs of this project make me scratch my head. But whatever. I don’t live here anymore. This is also going to take forever to come to...
