Welcome back to Lift Ticket: Resort Riding in Covid Times.
For this show we’ve brought in one of the industry experts - Christian Knapp - to fill us in on how the multibillion dollar resort industry is adapting to a virus that has turned the world upside down.
Christian has managed some of the biggest resorts in the world for the past 20 years including Breckenridge and Aspen Snowmass and now he is on the hunt for The Snowboard Project.
The season is underway - and with it cases of Covid and ever changing restrictions being put into place around the country. Fortunately we are still able to ride - a very bright spot on an increasingly dark year.
In this, our final episode of the mini series we examine what resort riding is like right now, what we can expect from the rest of the season as well as what we can expect next year.
We are still game on for this season even if it is shaping up to be much different than expected. We ask that all our listeners do their part now to try and slow the spread of Covid so that we can keep these resorts open. Also tag us in your posts and stories so we can see how your experience is going riding resorts this year. Our next episode will cover the perspective of the riders. Tag us with the hashtag #liftticketpodcast and shoot us a DM - we want to know how it’s going on your end!

We get an update from Jackson Hole about what policies they have put in place to keep riders safe this year and the current status of Travis Rice’s long anticipated Natural Selection competition.
Then we talk to journalists Jason Blevins from the Colorado Sun and Mike Rogge, who recently purchased the Mountain Gazette, about what it’s like to have so many new neighbors in their local communities.

Welcome to the first edition of Lift Ticket. In this monthly series, Christian Knapp (former Aspen CMO) and Mark Sullivan explore what resort opening will look like in COVID times.
We look at the shut down, making plans and the turn toward reopening.
In other words, in the past six months the resort industry has had to do a Complete 180 - hence the name of this episode.
In this episode we talk with Woodward Park City’s Jeremy Jones, Big Snow American Dream owner Joe Hession, Ski NZ’S Paul Anderson and Highland Mountain’s Mark Hayes.
Special thanks to @effective_edge and @sammagazine
