Definetly going to follow the Mathew Prince story; if he manages to buy Park City from Vail.
Would be interesting to see how that would go about practically and how it would affect PC and Vail.
Living in Sweden and having my favourite mountain, Åre, being mismanaged by our equivalent to Vail – Skistar – I have similair thoughts as Prince does on a daily basis. :)
