Interesting article that touches discussion/argument on crowds at Deer Valley that popped up in other threads.
Seems like DV management is aware of the issue (they'd have to be tone deaf not to be based on the complaints I have heard).
The article suggests management wants to do something about it but doesn't really say what. RFID lift tickets that is mentioned in the article doesn't really seem to be a notable solution to me, so we will see.
They had some interesting data points on the so called skier cap for those that are interested as well.
Ran into some DV employees today and they didn't have nice things to say about Alterra. Their perspective is that most employees are not happy about the changes under Alterra, and that DV is no longer the premium resort it used to be.
My perspective on the general consensus of PC locals is that Alterra isn't any better than Vail Corp.
