There is an earlier thread.

IMO Jon Schaffer is most likely gonna crush it. Dude seems to know how to make money without ruining a mountain. I am curious as to the order he will take things on. Will he juggle big projects at Burke and Smuggs simultaneously or tackle them one at a time?

I am hoping smuggs gets added to the indy but I don’t know if Smuggs would be ready for the influx of people.

lotsoskiing

ski_itJR Agreed. My guess is he will keep on a competent staff at Burke and they will do just fine. Bottomless cash with Graham behind the curtain

Anything the Schaffer’s do is a home run! I watched the boys take Berkshire East from a 3-4 month ski area to a year round mountain resort. Everything from the zip lines, bike park, mountain coaster etc. was thought out and executed to near perfection. There’s no doubt that Burke & Smuggler’s Notch will continue their vibe with a taste of appropriate upgrades to enhance the areas & experience.
