Coronet Peak
Coronet Peak lift operations update Coronet Peak is currently operating the Express quad chair, Meadows double chair, Magic Carpet and Sun Kid conveyor lifts on a daily basis (subject to weather & conditions). The Greengates Express six seater will operate on weekends only (unless business levels demand) until Saturday 22nd June from when it will be open full time, subject to weather and conditions. The decision not to operate Greengates midweek is based on both business and operational needs. We are a business and need to manage our costs at times when business levels are low in order to remain a going concern. This will ensure we are in a position downstream to make continued investment in the quality of the product and further enhance the experience for all our guests. On the other side, snow pack towards the bottom of the Greengates is thin, and not helped by the recent rain, as you are probably aware and this consideration is also in the mix when deciding to operate Greengates on a limited basis. We appreciate this may not satisfy everyone, but we have given it much thought and believe it is necessary and prudent in the current environment.
