Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association - A Group of 200 Taking on Vail Resorts

Season 5, Episode 75

This week, two representatives joined us from the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association (PCPSPA) to discuss its current conflict with Park City Mountain Resort owner Vail Resorts. Katie Lips is the President of the PCPSPA and Quinn Graves is a business manager of the PCPSPA. In addition, Katie and Quinn highlighted what it takes for the ski patrollers of the largest ski resort in the United States to keep skiers and riders safe and out of harm's way.

Since recording this podcast, a lot has changed in the current standoff between the PCPSPA and Vail Resorts, most notably that as of Friday, December, 27th, the PCPSPA went on strike. This has resulted in Vail Resorts having to turn to scabs by flying in other Vail Resort ski patrollers to keep Park City Mountain Resort operational. This is a developing story, but all of the latest updates can be found on SnowBrains.com.
