Don't Ski Coalbird!

WHY BOYCOTT SNOWBIRD?

Snowbird owner Dick Bass is threatening the future of the ski industry by investing in the largest proposed coal strip mine in Alaska, the Chuitna mine.  The mine would destroy salmon fisheries, pollute streams, and decimate forests while significantly contributing to climate change. Beyond being environmentally barbaric, investing in a coal mine is a glaring contradiction for someone who owns a ski resort, and who claims to value environmental sustainability.

We don't want this mine to succeed, and putting pressure on Bass is the way we can make a difference.  We have chosen to boycott Snowbird resort until Bass agrees to disinvest in the mine.  We are encouraging skiers and snowboarders to patronize other resorts, and for Snowbird season pass holders to commit to not buying passes in the future.
