Opportunities to Bid

As you may know, we've been working for two summers already on revitalization and expansion up at the Ridge.

And we have even more projects coming down the pipeline!

In the coming days and weeks we will be releasing several opportunities to bid on different projects around the lodge and on the mountain itself.

So excited for all the changes and improvements coming!

First up: we have opportunities to bid on a erosion and slope correction project to fix a few trouble spots around the mountain and improve our liftline.

And second is to give our great lodge a long overdue facelift.
