Saddleback, Maine must not become a Lost Ski Area!

Saddleback, Maine: Bigger than You Think. Different from the Rest. Highest base elevation of any New England ski area.
There is a mystique to Saddleback that is timeless and awe inspiring. It imprints vividly on any visitor.
Economically it is critical to the town of Rangeley, Franklin County, the state of Maine, and New England skiing as a whole.
As the pending sale of Saddleback has moved through weeks and months and now past a year since the July 2015 announcement, it is easy to get frustrated with the progress.
We all depend on Saddleback in different ways. Some of us depend on Saddleback to put food on the table and pay the bills. Some of us depend on Saddleback to satisfy our outdoor recreational pursuits. Some of us depend on Saddleback just to get away from it all and be at peace with ourselves and our families.
For most all of us… Saddleback is home.

Saddleback, Maine must not become a Lost Ski Area. Please sign this petition to show your support and use the comment box to tell everyone why Saddleback is a special place for you.
Over the past two weeks, we have been circulating a petition. Our purpose was to show that a client base still exists for Saddleback, even without concrete plans for winter 2016/2017 operations, and despite the circumstances of the last winter. You will see that the signers of the petition range from "local" locals who call Rangeley home, to people from all over who simply feel that Saddleback is "home."
In these pages of signatures you will find overwhelmingly positive support for continued mountain operations and testimonials about how Saddleback is in the hearts of many signers.
We assume that you do not need a list of virtues to understand how important the mountain is to the community and just how special and majestic the mountain is.
Simply: Saddleback must not become a lost ski area.
Please take a moment from the critical, probably grueling, work of developing a solution that allows for a sustainable business plan for Saddleback's future. Reflect that Saddleback is different from the rest. As the mountain inspires so many, be inspired as you read through the support of people ready to be back at Saddleback.
Thank you,
Michael Salisbury and Susan Sheehan
