Wow, Vail Inc seems to really, really not have any idea how to work with the locals in CB. This episode sort of reminds me of the early season a few years back when the back bowls at Vail were nearly completely bare and Vail's PR team pretended it was a great early season in all their marketing and social media leading into the holiday period instead of being remotely realistic. Also, definite shades of Steve Job's pretending to have a reality distortion field...
And after that cryptic intro, this is how to NOT deal with media and visitors when your main base area lift goes out of service for 5 days straight... Something tells me the locals have a much better idea what the 'dark side' references have always been about concerning Vail Inc.
