Maybe Summit Ventures can buy it. I'm picturing a super high speed gondola connecting sugarbush and stowe, or perhaps a monorail.
Yea, a monorail would be sweet.

Win is saving hte money for the monorail and using it on the teleporters.
"Dammit Jim! I'm a lift op; not a teleportation technician!"
Sorry... The new Star Trek movie has me all excited.
Not enough to actually see it, but enough to mention it here.
.
Two roads diverged in a wood,
and I- I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Duh...this is the perfect opportunity to sell...
...Stowe via raffle ! Tickets $1 each...
As taxpayers, we already kinda sorta own it, right....at least that's how I understand it. And it's DEFINITELY a toxic assett....
Can a Les Otten venture (Stowked Partners LLC ?) be far behind.....
And at least the new owners will have the opportunity to bulldoze and contour those too steep headwalls and twisty trails....
