The restaurant business can be challenging on any given day, but it becomes far more complex when that business is located in remote locations at 10,000ft.

Join Rob Katz and some of our Executive Chefs and F&B leaders, as we explore just what goes into creating the mountain dining experience. How do we transport food to remote locations and then up the mountain each day? What adjustments do we have to make for cooking at altitude? What goes into the decision to build a new restaurant? How do we re-imagine the dining experience when the guests’ demands are evolving and how will things change as we look to the future?

Our Company has been on a journey since October 1998 when Vail Mountain was subject to a fire-bombing attack by eco-terrorists. In the 20 years since, we have undergone a metamorphosis to one of the leading environmental companies in the world. This journey has not always been a clear and direct path and has been full of twists and turns.

In this episode we are exploring the impact of the arson attack, our first forays into wind credits and why we eventually switched to forest fire restoration, the criticism we received for the political donations by our Political Action Committee, the acquisition of Whistler Blackcomb and the formulation of our Commitment to Zero, to what the future holds.
