Snow in Colorado buoyed Vail Resorts in the first three months of the 2013-2014 ski season as the devastating drought in California hurt revenues at the company's three Lake Tahoe-area resorts. Skier visits at Vail's Colorado ski areas climber 11.9% in the three months ending January 31, but Heavenly, Northstar, and Kirkwood saw a 27.7% decline in visitation compared to last year.
