For $299 you can own part of a ski hill

it's a great concept for sure, but how it turns out we shall see. I am guessing it would be run in a similar fashion to MEC or another cooperative/nonprofit.and to the first poster, I believe in this case "part of a ski hill" means part of the company and not a physical piece of land, ie. buying a share of the company
