Intrawest had been selling off assets or trying to for years. Was a matter of time before a large buy out happened.

KSL/Aspen vs Vail
;) it's very important to include that KSL is in there. Hopefully the aspen side of things will help KSL run a ski resort. Last thing we need is Squaw, Mammoth, and whatever other resorts to be closed due to a slight breeze.

Did you see the bullshit that they posted? How the world cup proved the traffic was sustainable....and basically said all of the traffic issues are on us. Because waking up and leaving reno at 6 to hopefully get 45 minutes away by 9 is sustainable. KSL is cancer.

But the 4 new hotels and a watermark won't make any more traffic.....riiiiighhht

Yeah, I also see we both liked the Facebook post asking who didn't go to Squaw due to traffic.. haha. I think I skipped out entirely and went to heavenly.
