Mt. Bachelor is for sale and Sun River locals are looking to buy! This would be a huge win for the ski community up in Oregon as it takes one more ski area out of the grips of the enormous and ever-ambitious corporations such as Vail and Alterra and leaves it in the possession of locals. Right now, a few motivated locals are spearheading the fundraising efforts and have been met with overwhelming support from the community.
