PROPOSED SKI PARK HITS ZONING SNAG

Rocky Mountain News, 10/20/06

A proposed ski area northwest of this historic mining town met some resistance Wednesday when county planners declined to support a rezoning request for the site near St. Mary's Glacier. An investor group led by Michael Coors, a descendant of the founder of the Golden brewery empire, wants to open Eclipse Snow Park on about 300 acres of land that must be rezoned for commercial outdoor recreation.
