A damaging strike by the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association may be over, according to a joint statement by Park City Mountain and the Ski Patrol.
The strike, which began after the Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association said Park City Mountain's owners Vail Resorts had failed to move on a pay claim after nine months of negotiations, has been bringing
a lot of negative publicity to the world's largest ski resort operator.
Very limited terrain was open and very long queues were reported for operating lifts, with reports of very wealthy skiers being very upset at the service they were getting for their payments.
A joint statement issued earlier today states:
"Park City Mountain and Park City Professional Ski Patrol Association (PCPSPA) are pleased to announce that they have reached a new tentative agreement through April 2027. The Union's bargaining committee is unanimously endorsing ratification by its unit with a vote scheduled to take place on January 8. The tentative agreement addresses both parties' interests and will end the current strike. Everyone looks forward to restoring normal resort operations and moving forward together as one team."
