This US phenomenon is spreading like a cancer.

There is already some backlash to it, and most likely will continue.

I do wonder how it seems to have flown completely under the radar of competition regulators in multiple countries.

Lunch at guthega Inn was always very nice including the vibe.

Yes the car park double is open. Can’t vouch for the quality of snow on the run though. Even after the last dump there are still bits of bushes and some rocks sticking out of the snow. Today was -8 overnight, so very crunchy at first. It got to 4 degrees this afternoon, so soften nicely in most places but slushy to the north facing runs like Excelerator. Some good skiing though.

And the newish Basecamp at the base of the double chair is a good place to eat with a nice view.
