I’m excited to share that, after a full year, the sale of Arapahoe Basin to Alterra Mountain Company is complete. Now that the sale is final, I know many of you have questions about what Alterra ownership will mean for A-Basin and for each of us. Finally, we can start working on those questions. We will work with Alterra and shape the next phase of The Basin’s journey. Joining Alterra’s incredible network of mountain resorts gives us the support and partnership of a global leader in outdoor recreation, and it’s a privilege to be part of this extraordinary team. Since we first partnered with Alterra in 2019 and joined Ikon Pass, we’ve worked to preserve the unique spirit and community that define Arapahoe Basin. With today’s closing, I’m confident that spirit will not only remain but grow stronger.
Arapahoe Basin is much more than a ski area—it’s a home for passionate skiers, riders, and employees and all who cherish Colorado’s mountains and a spirit of adventure. Our community at The Basin is something special, and each of you helps make it that way. The thrill of skiing the Pali, hiking the East Wall, skinning up to a Moonlight Dinner, and the joy of sharing chairlift rides—these experiences are what make A-Basin home. Together, we’ll ensure they always remain at the heart of what we do.
I look forward to many more unforgettable days on the mountain with all of you.
Here’s to an amazing winter.
