Evict Vail from Park City

The Issue

Vail rents Park City Mountain from Talisker and has failed at operating it.  Vail collected record amounts of revenue from season passes before the season, and has failed to deliver the product.  Numerous lodges and chairlifts aren't open, snowmaking and grooming are at record low levels, and the community hasn't gotten the product it has paid for.  Ski-in ski-out communities including Silver Star, the Colony, and the South end of Canyons Village don't have their lifts open for access, and the resort has record long lift lines.  Still-closed lifts Silver Star, Thaynes, Daybreak, Dreamscape, Flat Iron, Sunrise, Short Cut, and Sun Peak remain closed simply to save money.  Alterra has nearby Deer Valley and Solitude 100% open.  Vail made all their money pre-season and is hanging on to it tightly, running Park City Mountain in the most profitable short-term way for their shareholders.  Their actions are detrimental to the community and to the mountain's long-term viability.  Talisker is Vail's Landlord in Park City, and this petition is asking them to evict Vail for non-performance.
