The principals and long term operators of Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort, Brian Fairbank, Joseph O'Donnell and Tyler Fairbank, purchased the assets and plan to make major upgrades and improvements at Cranmore. CNL Lifestyle Properties, a Florida-based real estate investment trust, which already has business relationships with Jiminy Peak and Booth Creek, is providing capital for the acquisition and the planned improvements.

"Cranmore is a popular family ski area, with a great history and has tremendous potential in the near future," said Jiminy Peak CEO Brian Fairbank. "With our team's experience in the resort industry, the investment and support from CNL Lifestyle Properties, and the continued leadership of Cranmore General Manager Ben Wilcox and his outstanding management team, Cranmore will be able to fulfill its unrealized potential."

"The Jiminy Peak group is the perfect organization to assume ownership of Cranmore," commented Booth Creek President Chris Ryman. "We will miss having Cranmore as part of the Booth Creek team, but know that they are joining an established and effective resort operator in the Jiminy Peak Resort group."

Booth Creek will continue to operate the Northstar-at-Tahoe™ and Sierra-at-Tahoe® Resorts located in Lake Tahoe, California under long term lease arrangements with CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc. Booth Creek retains its ownership and management of Waterville Valley Ski area, located in New Hampshire.

Jiminy Peak, Booth Creek and CNL Lifestyle Properties have been in discussions for nearly a year regarding the potential sale and amenity expansion. The three companies all have experience working with one another at other resorts in New England and across the country.

"Our team is very pleased to make this investment," said Byron Carlock, president and CEO of CNL Lifestyle Properties. "Brian, Joseph and Tyler are talented resort managers, and we believe with their experience and vision and our capital, Cranmore will be able to become a better resort, a more vibrant business and continue to provide great experiences for New England skiers."
