Use your local businesses

I have owned a small business for a short time now, but definitely see the advantages.  Being in Breckenridge is a pleasure and exciting.  Biking in the summer and skiing in the winter!  I have noticed a large corporation trying to take over the town.  It is ridiculous and hard to believe the town of Breck allows this to happen. 

Using a small business definitely has its advantages.  The prices are usually lower and the customer service is much better.  My employees constantly speak about peoples reactions while talking about the large corporation.  The customer service is generally very poor, and even the employees speak poorly about their job conditions. 

The pricing for rentals is generally higher as the large corporation is trying to squeeze every penny out of the tourist.  Remember, the local businesses are generally ran by locals and they will take care of everyone.  I can tell you that Elevation is a friendly business and is there to assist people, nt pull every dollar from them.  We all have the same equipment available to us, so the large corp saying they have the best equipment is a myth.  Support your local business.
