Vail Resorts—and by extension, Northstar—is sponsoring Shaun White. One of the big promotions is a new half-pipe they’re building for him to train on.

The local boarders aren’t too happy about it; it’s all by itself on a run separate from the other terrain parks.

The new Zephyr Lodge opened to the public, although its grand opening is tomorrow. It’s a huge improvement over the current lodges—Northstar finally has a lodge that looks like a lodge.
