Nahh, that lodge was baaaaad.

Is the scope of work available online anywhere? Obviously it'll be bad if they mess up the character of the main floor. But the current downstairs (where I have spent most of my time in that building, unfortunately) is not great.

You mean the Soviet Bunker isn't a nice place to have lunch?

The upstairs is great
Ok downstairs need some work
Maybe some new lighting, a coat of paint and some furniture/tables, but not a whole rebuild

Yeah I like the old wood charm of the upstairs as well, but functionally that lodge needed a rebuild.

No idea what the rebuild will entail though

Did they finish whatever expansion down below at Discovery that they were working on last year?

Rest in peace Overlook wood burning fireplaces.

automated food service to sell $8 skittles, avalanche proof doors? Roofers were hard at work buttoning things up in wind and snow last Friday.

Hope they keep those cool metal groomer sculpture/light fixture(?) thingy's (cheers) in the bar...

@Harvey emoji etc. buttons not active?

Will the Cafeteria not feel like a dungeon?

Curious to see if they fix that ankle-roller-not-a-step-not-a-ramp thingy in the avalanched addition. It shows the elevation change in the plans but not a change order. I’ve seen so many people almost end their ski season there.

I haven't made it there myself yet but believe this is now complete and fully open.

It is open.
