“We feel a true kinship with the other areas in the Powder Alliance and are elated at the chance to work them, and to share new mountain experiences!” said Monarch Mountain director of sales and marketing Carol Novak. “We want to encourage everyone to keep exploring, keep getting outside, keep searching for that perfect powder stash. Here’s to new adventures!”
