Be great if we could buy it, make it a coop. Let the trails grow back in....run only the double, sell all the other lifts....what a BC paradise it could be.

Ditch the bus to town and purchase a 4WD for shuttles to various BC "destinations"

Call Fung-Wa bus and arrange "snowstorm special" express to Stowe on forecast of +6"
Pray like hell they don't land in a ditch again...

Oh yeah. and remove the trail signs and map too......

The bus up could be more exciting than the skiing.
More dangerous, anyway.

You guys are too late, I already got the place by quitclaim deed for a bag of gold coins and I changed the name to Moe Mountain. Private memberships start at 25,000$ for a lifetime, transferrable membership and I only take Euros. I'm tearing down all the condos. :)

Another good article that is worth reading. Stowe officials and Bill Stenger are quoted in this one. Also interesting is how some locals value the resort to be at between $50 million and "hundreds of millions" and that there are no worries that the resort will fetch a high price.

go figger.

$82 tickets, no discounting, ski valet, $2M cottages, rooms at $600/night....

Sounds like they're doing it roght to me.

At least, right for their target audience.

And yes, they'll probably operate as usual this year. Just maybe with a different owner.
