Not surprisingly, fairly interesting article in today's Boston Globe about ski areas bonanza this winter, with some statements about Sugarbush ski visits and revenues.



The Globe article states in part that "Likewise, business has been brisk at Sugarbush in Warren, VT. Skier visits are up 7 percent so far this year, and revenue has risen 6 percent, compared to the same time a year ago", spokesman John Bleh said.

This is shaping up to be Sugarbush's second best year for revenue since current owner, Summit Ventures, bought the resort in 2001. Much of that can be attributed to the snow that blanketed its key markets. "Even if we get a huge storm in Vermont, if people in Boston or New York aren't seeing snow in their backyards, it's hard to get them motivated to come up here," Bleh said.
