JACKSON — Although Black Mountain is still for sale, it will remain in operation for one more year while a buyer is sought.
In a reversal of an announcement on the Jackson mountain’s Facebook page last week that it was closing, owner John Fichera on Wednesday posted that it will open after all, working with Indy Pass, which will provide resources to operate this season and assistance in finding a buyer for the historic ski area.
