POWDR Corporation announced last Thursday it was selling Oregon’s Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort and local effort to buy the resort is underway.
Chris Porter and Dan Cochrane have taken the lead in a feasibility study of the cost to purchase and operate Mt. Bachelor with local ownership. The expected cost will be in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
“The two methods we are looking at are a non-profit or possibly a trust but, really, returning the mountain to local shareholders so they have control.” –Chris Porter
A meeting is scheduled for tonight to explore options and will include local people, government representatives and private investors. Anyone interested in learning about the local driven effort to purchase Mt Bachelor are encouraged to email buymtbachelor@gmail.com.
