They are looking at a pretty small market niche: committed skiers with enough money for guides, cats and helicopters, but not interested in first class dining and drinking.

The VR/Walmart comparison is interesting. If the VR business model dominates, who supports the small local areas where most people actually learn to ski? Does anyone believe the big-buck ski vacation business can survive if no one has an opportunity to learn to ski before they get to Vail? or is your wife gonna let you drag her to Steaux when she can go to Grand Cayman for the same money?
