The Foreclosure and Your Job
ICR / OPS / 02
The file on your desk
A mountain left behind
The bank has the deed. The lifts are still. The lodge is cold. Around town, people remember powder mornings, crowded parking lots, and the sound of the bullwheel turning.
You have a limited operating budget and a chance to make the place work again. This is not a museum project. The hill must earn its revival one open day at a time.
