Boston investment firm offers to buy Saddleback!

 

[MissySki]

Awesome!!!

I hope this works out. I've always wanted to ski Saddleback, but didn't get there before they shut down. I feel for the slopeside home-owners.

Was just looking for a place to post this.
Okay, it's hold-breath time again. There have been offers in the past. They've been sat upon, pondered, rejected, lapsed.
Or the sale altogether fell through.
Let's not count any chickens too soon.

The immediate region (in which I live) is....cautiously optimistic.

Yay a deal has FINALLY been reached, I wonder when they’ll be able to reopen!

And another follow up, looks like with the lift work needed, they are hoping to reopen between Thanksgiving and Christmas next year.

Oh, yay! I'm excited! I've never had the opportunity to ski at Saddleback, but I've heard that it's really good. Hopefully, now I'll have the chance.

Never been there. Would like to make it up there at some point, though, to check it out.

Maybe we should have Diva East there . . .
