Worth noting that with this sale now complete, all of those assets have been written way down in value such that if they are just covering their operating costs, they are profitable. Everything PGRI acquired had likely been on the book sat over $200M in value. With that written down to $75M, everything gets a clean start.

Pretty sure there a plenty of Jay 2nd homeowners and/or well enough off primary home retirees and locals to fill a restaurant for a "special offering" meal like that.

Heck, 4-6 times per year, pre Vail ownership, Mount Snow did 4 to 5 course beer pairing dinners for about $100 a head that would sell out, and very often with a high percentage of repeat customers.

blackout dates: December 26 - 31, 2022, January 14-15, and February 18-20, 2023

four days sounds about right, 2X weekends or a long one. Ragged coaches were talking about renting a floor in the hotel for a long weekend after our season ends, should be a good time for the kids.

In that case I’m hoping for a “normal” January
Summary of a normal January in NE

1st week…Skating the ice rink left after the annual Christmas rainstorm
2nd week…Big storm on the way, gonna dump (turns to rain the day before)
3rd week…Big storm coming again…(Snows 2 inches and Facebooks best meteorologist calls it a powder day but wishes it was a sleet day instead)
4th week…One warm, sunny day and back to the ice rink (better get those skis tuned)

Then we all say maybe February will be better

Yeah, I didn’t really want to say it.
