Bromley, Jiminy and Cranmore are operated by fairbank group.
RESORTS | Fairbank Group
The Fairbank Group is the mastermind behind three mountain resort projects. Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort, Cranmore Mountain Resort, and Bromley Mountain.

It makes sense because NH owns two areas (Cannon and Sunapee) and NY owns several.
Technically, Vermont owns a lot of land that lies under ski areas. Thanks to State Forester Perry Merrill, who felt that skiing was a great economic engine for the state, he spearheaded a lot of ski area development on state land by private lessors. Jay, Burke, Stowe, Killington, Okemo (IIRC), Ascutney, and probably a few others that I have missed all sit on state park land and lease the land from the state.

Decent guess I figure.

About Sunapee, are you saying that NH owns the infrastructure? News to me.
They own the land and some of the infrastructure.

It sucks they went Ikon and didn't go Indy. Having Jiminy the same pass as Catamount & Bosquet and Bromley on the pass with Magic would have been amazing. Plus another NH mountain in the mix. On Ikon it really doesn't add as much.

Feel the same but their being a micro-conglomerate of sorts doesn’t fit the Indy mold. I would love a couple Cranmore days and I’ve never been to Bromley.
Edit: Although I guess the Jay/Ragged situation is similar. Dang.
It's very interesting. And it appears that Alterra is now opening up a new tier of resorts. I imagine that they are going to pay Fairbanks a lower amount for the benefit.
