Sounds better than The Balsams...

Having already approved the project in August 2016, the future of North Americas first year round resort took a step closer to reality when British Columbia government signed a master development agreement with the developers of the $100 million Valemount Glacier Destinations (VGD) earlier this year.

The resort will provide year round public access to glaciers at over 3,000 metres (9,850 feet), the only such access in North America, with a vertical drop of 2,050 metres (6,726 feet), the largest in North America and third largest in the world. It will provide the only significant summer skiing at a managed area in North America.

Valemount will be 12,000-acres in size once completed making it the largest ski resort in North America.

Are they just ignoring Timberline and Bear-tooth Basin? What constitutes "summer skiing"?
