III-1 IV QUANTITATIVE DEMAND ANALYSIS ............................................ IV-1 PETERSON ECONOMICS TOC-1 SECTION I INTRODUCTION Peterson Economics was retained by the National Development Council in November 2005 to complete a market analysis evaluating potential for residential real estate sales within a proposed new destination golf/ski resort community in Girdwood, Alaska. The proposed new resort community is currently named Glacier-Winner Creek; it could potentially become the premier ski and golf resort community in Alaska, featuring a dramatic, scenic mountain setting, a large ski mountain featuring an attractive mix of terrain, a championship-quality 18-hole golf course, and a variety of other amenities. Girdwood is located at the base of the Chugach Mountains, about 40 miles east of Anchorage. It is home to the Alyeska Resort, which includes Alaska’s nicest resort hotel and largest alpine ski area. Access to Girdwood and the subject site from Anchorage is relatively good. The Seward Highway (Interstate One) connects Anchorage to Girdwood, and when the roads are dry, travel time is roughly one hour. Currently, Girdwood is a small community comprised of a mix of primary- and second- home owners. The town’s resident population reportedly totals about 2,000 persons.

Standing like a monumental homing beacon on axis with Alyeska Highway, it fairly demands that those who live at its feet actively engage it.

Its magnetic pull is the force that governs the interplay between resort and community. Fig. 11-1 Mount Alyeska first began to attract local View toward skiers in the mid-1950’s, when a rope tow Mt. Alyeska and a small ski slope were installed from Highway (1956).

  • Sustainable Slopes for Ski Areas
    FOREWORD s a society, we find ourselves needing more than ever to escape every A day pressures by heading for the outdoors. With that increasing demand comes impacts and a number of emerging environmental concerns that must be addressed proactively.The ski industry adopted this Environmental Charter in 2000 as a framework for sustainability in our operations. We are revising it today to renew our commitment to responsible stewardship and fos- ter improved environmental performance industry-wide. The premier alpine recreation sites we have today were made possible through the vision, pioneering spirit and hard work of our industry’s founders. The value of those efforts holds today, as resorts are showcases of quality recreation opportunities for skiers, snowboarders, and countless summer guests as well. Although many forces may draw us to the slopes—the thrill and excitement of sliding down a mountain, the chance to reconnect with family and friends—we can never underestimate the value of the natural surroundings in renewing the human spirit.We respect the natural settings that we call home and hope that through our current efforts, we will preserve this same experience for future generations to enjoy. —Michael Berry, National Ski Areas Association President December 2005 1 INTRODUCTION marks the five-year anniversary for Sustainable Slopes and the first revision 2005 to the Environmental Charter. This revision ensures that our Principles are current and reflect the latest technology and best management practices to foster continuing improvement in environmental performance. It also acknowledges and incorporates emerging resources available from our Partnering Organizations as well as specific new ‘options for get- ting there’ from endorsing resorts.
