Powder Mountain has new management with some big ideas about what could be next for the Ogden Valley ski resort.
“At some point, it was save-the-world stuff, and I think now it’s: Have an incredible ski mountain that’s uncrowded where you can get multi-day powder,” Hastings said.
“‘You’d be the perfect owner from our point of view in terms of loving the mountain and appreciating it for what it is,’” Hastings said Bisnow told him. “‘And frankly, you’ve got the money.’” “At some point, it was save-the-world stuff,” Hastings said of the Summit group’s vision. “And I think now it’s: have an incredible ski mountain that’s uncrowded where you can get multiday powder.”
Snow blankets Powder Mountain during the 2022-23 ski season. Netflix cofounder Reed Hastings has purchased an ownership stake in Powder Mountain, the Utah resort announced Monday. Hastings declined to say how much of the Summit group’s shares he purchased or what price they settled on. He will be a minority owner and have one vote on the five-person board overseeing the resort’s operations.
Mitchell would not say definitively that Powder Mountain would remain a public resort, in part because he has not had much time to hash out plans with Hastings and the rest of the board. He has, however, already made one overture to locals of the nearby Eden, Huntsville and Wolf Creek communities who have been frustrated about not being able to ski or ride the mountain. This spring, the resort announced that people in those communities who were already on the waitlist would get bumped up in line to buy a full season pass, right after those who were renewing.
