According to the ski resort, "Powdr was founded in 1994 by entrepreneur John Cumming with the Alpine Meadows and Park City ski areas. He acquired Copper Mountain ski area in 2009 and purchased Eldora in 2016 from his friend Bill Killebrew, who had owned the resort with two partners for more than 25 years."
