    New mid-mtn restaurant at the top of Exo. Currently under construction. Last I heard the foundation was poured and the framing was going up. It probably won't be completed until the end of calendar '06 (like the new rental shop last year and the new PHQ the year before).

    As far as I know construction has not begun on the zuma lift or exo lift realignment. I think the earliest that will start is next summer. But I could be wrong.

    ...and yeah, the new Loveland to ABasin inter-area gondola is coming along nicely.

    Why, so the beavers can get even more hammered than they already do?

    I've heard they also have a new recipe for chili that is apparently amazing.
