Listening right now to the latest Storm Skiing Podcast episode that dropped... Stuart, the host, is interviewing National Ski Areas Association President, (and former Mount Snow GM) Kelly Pawlak, about COVID-19 and the effects on the industry.
One of the figures Kelly cited that floored me, was exactly how many folks are employed by the ski industry (both full time year round and part time seasonal employees), and that is 965,000!!
Also was mentioned that the estimated loss for the ski industry will be about 2 BILLION dollars, and that some of the larger Western Resorts in particular will end up loosing about 1/4-1/3 of their annual revenue with the loss of March and April....
Crazy numbers... Very interesting interview as well
