Sugarloaf/USA gets $4 million facelift

The new owner of Sugarloaf/USA is making the largest capital investment in over a decade in the Carrabassett Valley ski resort.


Sugarloaf officials on Monday said the $4 million investment will expand snowmaking capacity by 20%, create a new public transit system, improve trail grooming and upgrade and expand facilities, including the Sugarloaf Outdoor Center and Bullwinkle's, Sugarloaf's mid-mountain lodge, according to the Associated Press.

Boyne USA Resorts, based in Michigan, acquired the Sugarloaf and Sunday River ski resorts for $77 million in August and then immediately sold them to CNL Income Properties, an Orlando, Fla.-based real estate investment trust. Boyne then signed a 40-year agreement to operate the resorts, saying it would use the financial backing of CNL to invest in the resorts.
