These last weeks there were lots of news on Vail Resorts, for the wrong reasons, and got me thinking how sustainable is Vail Resorts for the Future Years?
I actually think this is a bigger problem, that can include Alterra and Powder Mountain and all the conglomeration that has been going on on the ski business worldwide.
It is a love/hate relationship that one has now with Vail Resorts and all the conglomeration of ski passes. Part of me thinks is just plain wrong, that they are killing the character of resorts, and really gets me angry seeing these big companies trying to purchase European and Japanese resorts. But then, having studied Economics in my younger life, I can see that the scale economies work… but to whose advantage… not employees for sure, maybe the CEO of a public company, that has her job pretty well paid of.
