Mike Maughan, general manager of Alta Ski Resort, lashed out at Save Our Canyons’ Carl Fisher for Fisher’s assessment of Alta’s controversial new development plan (The Tribune, April 18). Unfortunately, for someone who spends so much time at altitude, Maughan decided to take the low road, attacking Fisher rather than the merits of his argument. Those merits Maughan overlooked? Alta’s effort to clutter the majestic Mount Baldy with an unnecessary tram, the bulldozing of open space for additional parking spots and the ski lift company’s destruction of wetlands despite a written plea from Salt Lake City Public Utilities, Sandy City and Metro Water of Salt Lake City requesting that Alta not proceed with the wetland destruction. Alta proceeded anyway.
