US Ski Resorts Face Travel Decline Amid Political Concerns
Ski resorts across the West faced delayed openings due to low snowfall, leading to anxiety within the tourism industry. Beyond weather concerns, resorts are also bracing for a decline in international guests, particularly from Canada, due to tariffs and political rhetoric. Local businesses are launching campaigns to welcome back Canadian visitors, who have historically been a significant source of revenue, as spending from Canada has decreased. Despite this, resorts remain uncertain about the upcoming season due to unpredictable booking patterns and fluctuating political dynamics.
