Ski Lodge Task Force

The Lodge Task Force, launched in January 2020, was a member task force that helped to provide information and guidance in the early stages of the Downhill Ski Lodge Replacement Project.

• Supporting Docs
  • Skier Visit History 1-18-20: Staff developed this skier visit table that shows the skier visit numbers for every day of the ski season. The Task Force used this to develop what the peak period days were and the number of days per season that those days occurred.
  • Downhill Ski Usage per Day 2-17-20: This table provides a summary of the ski visit history table above. The table was used to show how many days the resort exceeds certain capacities per season (700, 800, 900, 1000, 1,100, 1,200, 13,000). It also references snowfall volumes, showing how varying snow years impact ski resort use.
  • Task Force Update to GPC 3-2-20: The slide deck provided the General Plan Committee (GPC) an update of Task Force progress as well as introduced a timeline for staff to engage a third-party architectural firm to drive a lodge programming analysis.
  • Lodge Sizing Task Force Decision Criteria Consolidation 3-19-20: The Task Force documented the sizing criteria ideas.
  • Lodge Sizing Task Force Criteria Summary 3-19-20: Bulleted summary of the Task Force Decision criteria ideas.
