Con of Big white purchasing silver star

So big white ltd. purchased silver star awhile ago, its all good but what pissed me off is that silver stars 'comet express' 6-seater chairlift was supposed to be our paradise express, beside the ridge rocket, or even replacing the ridge rocket quad. We might be seeing a slower rate of development now that the company has two resorts to manage, but it surprised me when they did the park this year, so i trust that they will do a good job.

suppose but maybe in the long run it might work out better, they gust dropped like 136 mill on stuff, most of it i don’t care about, all hotels and crap but money is money.

I hate it how they're wasting so much money on Silver Star and it will never even compare to Big White.

yea word man^ i feel the same. But the critics are already counting them as equal, i think its good and all that they are expanding and shit to another mountain, but now all the resources will have to be split in half, so our mountain will progress at a slower rate and silver star will be happy, they are getting new quads and six packs in. I bet they will do a park next, something like big white has this year

but what about all the money they are getting from silver star. I think that development will get even faster, just watch.

Granted, we could definitely do with updating Falcon or something, but at the same time, I think it is great that Schumann Resorts are updating Silver Star, bringing two world class resorts to the area. In the long run, it is only going to benefit us all- with both resorts accessible from the one pass, and only two hours away from each other.
I really like some of the back stuff of Silver Star, but it doesn't compare to here in any other way really- hence why the money they are spending to develop it is a good thing.
If I don't remember it, I didn't do it.
