Vail Resorts CEO CNBC Appearance (MTN)

Robert Katz of Vail Resorts

appeared today on CNBC to talk about his company, the upcoming ski season, and operations. Katz noted that "with the bookings we're seeing now, we're quite optimistic." The Bloomfield, Colorado-based company hit a 52-week high in today's session. During the interview, Katz notes that higher-priced properties are almost sold-out for the upcoming season. We see people booking earlier, spending more, and pre-booked seasonal tickets up 10% versus last year's pre-sale.
