Not that the average skier or snowboarder will notice the difference, but the sale of venerable Brighton Resort was announced Tuesday.
Boyne Resorts, the Michigan-based company that has operated Brighton for more than two decades, is buying the Big Cottonwood Canyon resort and five others from Ski Resort Holdings, an affiliate of Oz Real Estate. The sales price was not disclosed.
Oz bought these six ski resorts — and seven others — last April from CNL Lifestyle Properties, a real estate investment trust in Florida, for $374.5 million.
Boyne originally bought Brighton in 1986, then sold it to CNL in 2007 but continued to operate the resort under a lease.
