Trends

The continued intensity of competition among Colorado ski resorts as well as the recent acquisitions and consolidations in the industry gives rise to the increasing number of lifts, as well as their complexity. That, in turn, means more safety inspections and ones that are longer to ensure the safety of the sophisticated machinery.
