Beaver, UT - Mt. Holly Club, a private luxury ski and golf resort proposed for the dormant Elk Meadows ski resort, on Wednesday announced that the U.S. Ski Team’s Ted Ligety, Olympic gold medal skier and World Cup champion, will serve as the club’s director of skiing operations. Ligety will oversee growth of the planned ski-in/ski-out private resort — the mirror image of the golf-in/golf-out capability prospective members hope to enjoy in the summer playing the resort’s proposed Jack Nicklaus Golf Club golf course.
