Saw this on SkiMRV and though it deserved a thread here too. Good stuff:

http://www.vermontguides.com/2007/08-aug/sugarbush.html

I especially noticed:

Smith’s hands-on involvement includes using the Internet. “The Net is full of blogs and third-party information — not always accurate — which influence the way people make decisions about where to ski.

Great to have Win on board here and over at SkiMRV!

Win and Summitt Ventures have a great philosphy for success at Sugarbush:

says Smith, “Lots of ski areas are owned by big organizations. We’re only interested in being a single-mountain ski resort that’s run well.

“Our competitive advantage — and differential — is our magnificent valley, spectacular terrain and customer focus. We’re worth the extra hour’s drive to be here in heaven.”
