    Indeed, this is excellent news. All potential plans are on the table for next winter. Looks likely I’ll have to make a US trip for work at some point too.

    Looks awesome. Very sorry not to have made it over. I got back to CH a week ago, desperate to ski. Woke up the next day with some sort of horrible ‘flu, ended up spending most of the last week in...

    Bit more than a rumour, it’s been widely reported in the Swiss press. The lack of comment from either Vail Resorts or Televerbier suggests there’s truth to it.
