Since Boyne purchased the mountain they should just move the Jordan quad here to replace Summit Express and build a 6 pack at Barker instead of moving it there.
Shawnee/Pleasant doesn’t seem like a detachable type of place. It’s a low-key alternative to Maine’s Big Two and the Conway resorts that Vail is mismanaging and I think most of its patrons want to keep it that way. The Boyne purchase is a good sign, but it doesn’t need much more than good maintenance.
Two employees have confirmed to me, a detachable quad will replace the summit triple in two seasons. Word is, the triple will remain to mid-station. That will give two lifts access to Sunnyside.
I have no idea of ownership or permitting, but there is plenty of expansion potential south of Sunnyside.
