I've spent a lot of time sitting on the bus in traffic to get to the ski resorts. Seems like a positive to reduce the amount of cars going up that road. Not sure I understand the hostility towards this approach except as NIMBYism.

I wonder if it's even that the locals don't want it to be easy to get to Alta/Snowbird. They'd probably rather it stay difficult because they think then there will be fewer people on the mountain.
