Aspen Skiing Company is a perennial environmental winner, but Snowbird took home a prestigious industry award. “Along with partners Trout Unlimited, the U.S. Forest Service and Tiffany & Co.,” Post Time News reports, “Snowbird made history during the summer of 2006 as the first private landowner in Utah to help fund a mining-era cleanup effort to eliminate tailings seepage from the Pacific Mine that was affecting the American Fork watershed. Located on Snowbird-owned property, the Pacific Mine site is roughly 3 miles south of Snowbird’s Hidden Peak.”
