VAIL Nine months and plenty of construction after the Antlers at Vail hotel launched a plan with the goal of bringing 100 percent of its suites up to Vails highest platinum ranking for lodging, more than half of the condominium hotels units have received the luxe upgrades and the Antlers is boasting a new logo and website to celebrate its new look.
Designed by Denver-based Wigwam Creative, Antlers at Vails new logo offers a clean, modern approach while incorporating Vails European cachet, as well as the hotels popular elk antlers theme on view in the iconic bronze statue of two clashing elk in the hotels courtyard.
Emphasizing Photography
The just-launched website emphasizes photography including the newly upgraded units as photographed by Michael Rawlings and styled by Amy Lewis and presents the old sites familiar color palette in a new way. Created by Vail-based Nichols Interactive, the new http://www.antlersvail.com is a responsive site that automatically adjusts to devices used to access it, and puts the most valuable information at the users fingertips while highlighting the fun personality of the Antlers blog and valuable feedback from travelers on TripAdvisor.
Our logo and corporate identity was 40 years old, and as comfortable as we were with it too comfortable, probably as we began to see the amazing results of our Unit Quality Improvement plan moving us toward becoming an overall platinum-rated property, we realized it was time for a new logo and visual brand to represent the new Antlers, said Antlers General Manager Rob LeVine. Both because of our name and our well-known courtyard sculpture, we felt it was important to keep the elk and antlers as part of our logo. Plus, we wanted to convey that although we look better, our values remain the same, emphasizing our the answer is yes, now what is the question? approach to customer service, our family feel and our strong role as a community partner.
Luxe Upgrades
Unique to vacation destinations, Vail Valley Partnership manages a Lodging Quality Assurance program that provides a standardized rating system for all units rented through the Vail Valleys central reservation systems, with platinum representing the highest level of room appointments. Antlers at Vail interior upgrades in recent months have included granite countertops, stainless appliances, new flooring, new lighting and entertainment systems, new fireplaces, furnishings and much more with resulting upgrades to the platinum LQA scores.
Were getting great feedback from our loyal guests who have been coming here for years about the changes both here at the Antlers and on our website, which is so important to us, LeVine said. And at the same time we hope our new look and website presence will make it easier for new guests to find us and see what we have to offer.

Elgin, Ill-based The Middleby Corp. plans to acquire Milwaukee-based U-Line Corp., the companies announced today.
U-Line designs and assembles built-in refrigerators and ice makers that fit under countertops. The corporate headquarters has been in Milwaukee since it was founded by Henry Uihlein in 1962, and the headquarters will remain in Milwaukee. The brand, operations and leadership will also be retained as they are.
U-Line, which has 169 employees, also has an office in Laguna Beach, Calif. and a European office. Its products are shipped all over the world, and its annual revenues are about $60 million.
Middleby, which has about 4,500 employees globally, manufactures, markets and services equipment used in commercial foodservice and food processing, and residential kitchen equipment under brands including Blodgett, Toastmaster and Viking.
U-Line is a well-established brand and a category leader in innovation, quality and performance in the high-end residential markets (it serves), said Selim Bassoul, chairman and chief executive officer of The Middleby Corp. U-Line has an outstanding reputation and provides a strong strategic addition to our growing residential platform. We are excited about the fourth quarter launch of a fully redesigned and expanded lineup of new products at U-Line and believe the company is well positioned for growth. The transaction price was not disclosed.

FLAGSTAFF -- The lab countertops at Northern Arizona University's School of Forestry are covered with ponderosa pine branches that have several Pandora caterpillars munching away on the needles.
Richard Hofstetter, a forest entomology professor, is studying a population boom among Pandora moths in the northern reaches of the Kaibab National Forest - the most seen in the past 20 years.
It stems from a bumper crop of caterpillars last summer, before they burrowed underground and spent a year turning into moths.
"It's important to understand our native species, and especially one that has such a high abundance and can outbreak like this," Hofstetter said.
It's especially important, he said, because as caterpillars the insects are prodigious eaters. In great numbers they can seriously damage a forest, as was the case last summer, when 1,000 acres of Kaibab National Forest north of the Grand Canyon wound up completely defoliated.
Shayne Rich, who with her husband owns a gas station near Jacob Lake, said that during a peak in August hundreds of moths would swarm the lights each evening.
"It was crazy. As soon as the sun went down and lights came on the moths came out. By the morning a lot of them had died," she said. "The whole base where the cars drive was covered in moths. It took a couple hours to sweep up."
It's thought that the Pandora moth's population surges around every 20 years due to a virus that controls its numbers dying off.
When there isn't a surge in population, Hofstetter said, over the span of a year researchers will catch 50 to 100 moths. These days their traps are catching 16,000 moths every three days.
Hofstetter said these moths have already laid eggs.
