maybe moored to a fantasy. Those are the most ridiculous incomprehensible unneeded letters possible. It's totally self incriminating. I think Mike did fine to post it as is with little comment. SkiSE does a good service to the region. We're all grieving in our own ways 
And if true I would be so pissed if they really turned down an offer from Snowshoe. Not a lot of those in the queue.

I would give a big fat KUDOS to pugski for allowing the truth to be known!
The other internet shills can suck it!

It is quiet on the Timberline front... almost too quiet. Seriously though, anything happening?
A reliable poster on Timber-lies announced that another groomer was repossesed this week by Pistenbully. This means that the resort now only has one functional groomer. I received an announcement from CVPSD about the receivership and where utility checks should now be mailed. Other than that, not much to report.

power turned off. which is welcome news to the neighborhood because they've left the night skiing lights on 24/7 for months...at least the few that were still working

I spent 4 nights in the valley skiing CV slopes for 3 days in early March. When leaving I swung through TL for old times. I noted what had been about 15 groomers in various states of operational readiness in the TL parked equip area, most appeared to not be usable. I was shocked to see this much apparently unusable ski grooming equipment at the resort. How did such a waste happen?

Timberline has been cited by the state for creating an open dump

Illegal dumping has been an issue forever at the resort: the area where old Silver Queen cabriolet chairs were dumped is probably the best example. However, it’s gotten worse and the state is taking notice.

I think they would accumulate fines from the county.
It is allowable in WV to have a maximum of two derelict vehicles on ones property.
Not sure if that covers junk lifts and non functional groomers.

I believe this depends on the type of receivership sought. It could be a receivership just to take funds coming in and disburse them properly (i.e., not fraudulently). There are also receivers for dissolution of businesses, where they have more operational authority, but the idea there isn't for them to become new managers of the business.
I've lost track of this economic disaster accounting. Other than the shell game with the utility money from downline home owners, i.e. outright fraud, what all do they owe in the form of..
Back taxes..
Property mortgages and other loans
Regulatory fines
Actual utility bills they are responsible for paying.
Anything else?
I'd think whoever is the biggest creditor would get most control of their assets..
Not even going in to the prescription drug dealing racket. That's a whole other can of worms.

In most states, receivers have significant powers, including the power to sell assets (up to an including an entire enterprise) to pay off creditors. However, I don’t know what powers they have in WV. Does anyone know where Timberline stands these days with back taxes? There’s a holding company that paid its tax liens last year but if that company does not get reimbursed with interest at some point, it will have full title to the property.
