Ski resorts are already way overcrowded, despite the insane lift prices. How is making it more accessible going to help anything? It's already at maximum capacity.

If they really were at maximum capacity, then ticket sales would drop. But that's not happening.
No. Not if the price is at an equilibrium that optimizes for maximum capacity.
Then why are people spending so much to buy these houses? The demand is there, if the mountains really are as packed as you claim there wouldn't be so much demand to have easy access to the ski mountain.
Build more mountains, duh! /s
