Construction in full swing on Heavenly's Epic Discovery Project
Submitted by paula on Fri, 07/10/2015 - 6:00pm
Work has begun on the Epic Discovery Project, the expanded year round adventure park activities currently being built at Heavenly Mountain Resort. This new experience is designed to appeal to a wide range of visitors. It includes zip line and tree canopy tours, an alpine coaster, a mountain bike park, multi-use trails, ropes courses, and interpretive and educational tours to teach visitors about the Lake Tahoe Region’s cultural and environmental resources.
Epic Discovery will generate a number of jobs related to construction of the new facilities, as well as increased year-round employment for operations and maintenance. This will directly support a healthier year-round economy for the local community. Heavenly will roll out the implementation of Epic Discovery in phases over several years, concentrating initially on the activities surrounding the Tamarack Lodge area at the top of the Gondola and then moving on to the East Peak Lake and Sky Meadows areas of the resort.
