You can bet Rob Walz is putting the finishing touches on all the maintenance details that fill up spring and summer at Cascade Mountain, a popular ski resort in Portage, WI. On a busy Saturday, as many as 4,500 snow bunnies will ski down the facility’s 26 trails.
His dad, plumbing contractor Phil Walz, whose other son continues to run Walz Plumbing in suburban Chicago, bought the place 20 years ago this winter.
