Tis the season to wondering what our friends at Vail may or may not be upon to this off season in terms of improvements at the Laurel Highlands resorts. 

Any insights? Hoping for a new lift in the next few years on the North Face.

Not a ski improvement, but Vail has been paving the roads they own within Hidden Valley.

I just viewed the paving job this past weekend. Nothing but a series of small patchwork on the potholes, not a full pave job. Looks like crap. It's my understanding that Nutting still owns the road so this makes sense.

 It is my understanding that she owned no Vail stock....NONE. Not much of a commitment to Vail's success, I would say. Maybe she'll go back to being a high fructose corn syrup peddler.

Re HV- 

 Yep - just a bunch of patchwork.  The whole entrance needs to be repaved, rethought, redone.  Same for the lodge / base area. Fix the clock. It's ostensibly the centerpiece of your lodge. Doesn't work.  

There isn't an easy way to describe the feeling of homeowners sort of held captive.  They put their money in, everyone buys passes. Everyone skis. They seem to make bank on HV with all the children learning and all the alcohol sold.  They need to put something back in.  And by they I mean Vail.
