  • Vail Ups the Bid for Canyons

    BROOMFIELD (AP) - Vail Resorts has boosted its offer for The Canyons ski resort in Utah.

    According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Broomfield-based Vail Resorts sent a letter Monday to the board chairman of American Skiing Company, which owns The Canyons.

    Vail said that in addition to its previous $110 million cash offer, it also would offer a 30 percent interest in net cash flow arising from real estate rights that would be transferred in the sale.

    Vail Resorts estimates the stake could produce up to $650 million for American Skiing Company through 2020.

    Vail is trying to overtake a rival $100 million offer from an affiliate of Toronto-based Talisker Corporation.

    One word..."Hoorrrayyyy!"

    Hopefully Vail will buy The Canyons and finish the "Grand Plan" that would make that place a world class destination. With some development, this could be one of the BEST ski areas in the world. They already have 7 peaks and one the the largest skiable areas on the plantet. Then all our resale values would go up.
