Would it be plausible for Monarch to try and add in a connector lift or two to connect it’s main ski area to the scenic tram and add a lot of terrain?
It seems the north facing terrain off the top of the tram would be good for skiing and the Monarch Pass might be a good second base area.

The terrain off the tram is very windblown and doesn’t hold snow well.

Reading the McCoy Park lift environmental deficiencies report, one gets the sense that the Bergman Bowl ‘error’ at Keystone was less of an oopsie and more like VR doing what it does and hoping not to get caught.
Infuriating.
