Steamboat Ski area is officially for sale!


I got this just a few minutes after the document was saved on Chris Diamond's computer (checked the properties of the file as part of my verification). He is the President of the Steamboat Ski Area. I have verified it is the real thing and leanred that Bear Sterns will be representing ASC. Reviewing strategic options in this context is a clear statement the ski area is for sale.

FANTASTIC NEWS FOR STEAMBOAT LOCALS AND VISITORS!!
This is a long way from a deal but having a capable ski area owner that is interested in investing in the mountain will go a long way. More to follow...
