From Warren Miller to Wall Street: What Happened to Skiing?

The Jeff and Bill Show! March 10, 2026 - Hr. 4 Colorado skiing isn’t just a sport — it’s a culture. But is that culture starting to disappear? Jeff and Bill sit down with John Pritzlaff of Podium Sports in Frisco to talk about what’s really happening in the Colorado ski industry — from declining snow seasons and rising costs to the growing influence of massive corporate ski resorts. For decades, skiing in Colorado meant something different. It meant ski clubs, bus trips to Winter Park, Warren Miller film premieres, and a mountain culture that locals felt part of. Today? Epic Passes, massive corporations, crowded lift lines, and prices that many locals say have pushed them out of the sport. John Pritzlaff — a former professional skier and longtime Colorado ski industry veteran — joins the show to explain what he’s seeing from inside the business. Is the industry changing for good? Or is this just another cycle in Colorado’s long skiing history? Jeff & Bill break it all down. 🎿 Topics in this conversation: • The changing economics of ski resorts • Why ski culture feels different today • The rise of corporate ownership in the ski industry • Snowpack cycles and Colorado’s outdoor economy • Why many locals feel priced out of skiing • The legacy of Warren Miller and classic ski culture And the big question: Is Colorado skiing losing its soul… or simply evolving? 📍 Guest: John Pritzlaff – Podium Sports (Frisco, Colorado) 🎧 Listen to the Jeff & Bill Show weekdays on 710 KNUS Denver Where you hear both sides.
