When I first started writing about the Disney theme parks I never expected that something like this would happen. On January 21, I was the host for a presentation and panel discussion at The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. The topic was the rise and fall of Walt's lost last project - the Mineral King ski resort to be located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. My special guests were Ron Miller and David Price. Ron Miller, former CEO of Walt Disney Productions and one of the founders of the Museum, was in the room with Walt when decisions were being made and brought his firsthand knowledge and insights. David is the son of Harrison "Buzz" Price and a renowned architect of themed environments in his own right. David spent many days in the Mineral King valley when the project was under development and he brought his memories and professional insights into the discussion. The event was sold out.
