"The deterioration in our working capital position during 2004 was primarily due to operating losses." Just made me chuckle. Was in the tbio quarterly report PR. Big news: Mission is getting a quad!!! For years we rode up to the top, very slowly. This will cut the ride to the top in half and you wont see any lines now. Not that mission has lines very often, but you know. See you all at Mission Ridge next year! missionridge.com I think this fellow, Larry Scrivanich, is a private investor from around here in Seattle. He bought Mission from Stevens Pass (Harbor resorts) after Harbor apparently noticed that there wasn't gobs of money to be made. I'll bet Mission actually made more than Stevens this year, with the dearth of snow for most of the winter. I am glad Stevens is not running Mission-- Go Larry! Now if the USFS lets Mission build a pond for snowmaking storage we will be in good shape. Mission Ridge has the best skiing in the Cascades, the snow is dry, and there are no crowds. That said, I've not skiied at White Pass, probably similar.
