Ski patrollers at Keystone Resort filed a petition seeking an election for union representation with the National Labor Relations Board in February, an effort following the unionization of ski patrollers at other ski areas in recent years like Park City Mountain Resort, Steamboat Resort and Telluride Ski Resort. Jonathan Cernanec, a Keystone ski patroller and one of the leaders of the effort, explained that the patrollers wanted to unionize to make ski patrolling a more sustainable career with compensation that reflects the responsibilities that come with the job. The starting hourly wage for a ski patroller at Keystone is $13.25, Cernanec said, one dollar above Vail Resorts’ base pay of $12.25 per hour in Colorado.
