    Dear Mr. & Mrs. Conlin: We are deeply saddened by the passing of your son while enjoying the facilities of our resort. However may we suggest that next time, if you wish to reduce your exposure to the risks of falling snow, you take advantage of the multiple miles of cross-country skiing trails we maintain for our guests.

    Respectfully, Vail Resorts Risk Management (not really)

      All I can say is that eastern slopes are typically so glazed over that this is one risk we would like to take every once in a while…
