In what is believed to be a first for the resort, Vail has filed a countersuit against a skier who sued after being injured while skiing. Vail is suing Julia Parsons for breach of contract, arguing that in buying a season pass she had agreed to waive her right to sue. Parsons says she cut her knee severely when she hit a metal bracket on the Lionshead Bridge that was jutting out and should have been repaired. Parsons' lawyer says Vail "want[s] to get immunity from everything, and I mean everything."
