Jim Smith has become the third senior VP at Mammoth Mountain to leave this summer, along with VP of Hospitality Bob Peckenpaugh, Bike Park Manager Mark Hendrickson, and marketing head Howard Pickett. Smith, who had been in charge of real estate at Mammoth, is leaving "because it's too frustrating to be here" according to CEO Rusty Gregory. Smith will be heading to Vail Resorts (as will Hendrickson) to be the VP of Strategic Development, and will likely be taking on The Canyons as his first project. We'll be waiting to hear more on Mammoth's leadership shake-up when Rusty Gregory addresses employees this afternoon. [The Sheet]
