i still think it's B.S that we only have two Major Lift Companys

[SkiBachelor]

So does Europe I think.

Maybe the government will come in over in europe, and break up the doppelmayr monoply

[SkiBachelor]

Won't happen, they are European companies, not American. :)

Anyway, the skilift age is slowly dying kind of like coasters in a way, so merging is the only way these companies can survive.

True

Back in the day, with all the young resorts popping up, its was really nice, especially in the 50s-early 70s. RIght no its hard to expand, let alone start a resort, so they do merge. If they didnt, theyd be selling like 3 lifts a year each.
