Ski Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 Montage resort sale near BY ROGER DUPUIS II STAFF WRITER 06/18/2006 The sale of Montage Ski Resort by Lackwawanna County could be very close at hand, majority Commissioner A.J. Munchak confirmed Saturday.
kragan Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 700k loss for the last 2 years? They don't have anything to negotiate. They should take what ever is offered and be happy that they could sell it all. I agree with that. Don't most business's base their sale price on 3 years (maybe 5) worth of profits?
Papasteeze Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 I agree with that. Don't most business's base their sale price on 3 years (maybe 5) worth of profits? yeah... ski is right on with this one. It's silly how some 40k yr public people are enlisted to handle multi-million $ sales, they are clueless.. Stupid...
Ski Posted June 23, 2006 Author Report Posted June 23, 2006 I agree with that. Don't most business's base their sale price on 3 years (maybe 5) worth of profits? The company that owns Windham and Roundtop, Snow Time, offered to simply take it over two years ago and ensure a lot of county employees future employment, as well as give locals a better shot at not having their local ski area join NELSAP. But Lackawanna said no...they wanted a huge payday, so to speak. Which cost tax payers a couple of million dollars, so far. GREAT DECISION. And now they feel like they are in a position to bargain and nail a great deal? And the last paragraph of the story just shows how ingorant Mr Washo is:

Sno Mountain Skier Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 Okay, so now we are in the stage of telling each other what we want. For me Montage needs three things. 1. Bigger jumps, Longer rails (No more boxes), Gap ons 2. Snowmaking= its that simple 3. High Speed quad close to Phoebe Snow, that goes to top of Switch. With all of these things, I wouldn't even think of going anywere else.
Sno Mountain Skier Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 montage has very bad snowmaking?? There snowmaking is good on the northface were they have tower guns. The rest of the mountain they use portable fan guns, and it takes 3 or4 days of continous snowmaking to open a trail.
skifreak Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 montage has very bad snowmaking?? Yeah, they need more guns and a major overhall with the pumping capabillities for air and water.
