'We are incredibly grateful and proud of Dave's contributions throughout his long tenure at the resort, but most especially during the integration of Whistler Blackcomb into our company over this past year,' said Pat Campbell, Vail Resorts' mountain division president. 'His leadership during this transition has been critical to the resort's continued success during the 2016-2017 winter season and its offering of exceptional service to our guests and experience for our employees. Dave leaves a legacy of exceptional leadership, an incredible team and dedication to the resort and the local community that will not easily be replaced nor forgotten,' said Campbell.
The company will begin a search for Brownlie's successor immediately and he plans to stay on through mid-summer to ensure a smooth transition for the resort, employees and community.
