We do not feel that a new restaurant at the top of Lift 7 is necessary or that it could be constructed and operated in a way that does not have a negative effect on the environment.

The premise of these projects is that the resort would be improved, not expanded. Building anything new is “expanding” and contradictory to premise.

Any justification for building this restaurant ignores the fact that the existing Phoenix Restaurant is a viable alternative to the proposed restaurant. We request that the Carson National Forest insist that these alternatives are utilized instead of building a new restaurant.
