This is pretty much purely a Utah thing. Has been going on for several years. The protesters that have pushed the lawsuit were such whiners. They claim discrimination.
Alta leases the mountain from the USFS. They run a business. They don’t allow you to take a sled or tube up and slide down. Nor can you tow people up with a snowmobile to sled/ski/snowboard down. Their business, their rules. Kinda like wanting to use a jet ski in a water park. They have a right to limit the types of recreational activities they will allow. Lots of business lease federal ground. Ranchers. Perhaps a lawsuit ought to be drawn to force the ranchers to have a more diverse herd. Too many angus, need some herefords in there. A minority trying to force their wishes on everyone else. Plenty of other hills for them to do what they want. You only want what you can’t have I guess.... I am glad that for once the court ruled that a business can conduct its business as it wishes.
