Workers scrambled over the last four weeks to complete the lodge, in some cases using tables and kitchen equipment from The Mint, a former restaurant and bar in nearby Hailey that is also owned by Willis.</p><p>The opening comes late in the ski season, but features a new lodge to replace the original structure that was destroyed in the March 30 fire. Investigators determined the blaze was accidental.</p><p>The ski area in central Idaho is about 60 miles from the better-known resort towns of Sun Valley and Ketchum. Willis, the star of "Pulp Fiction" and the "Die Hard" series of action movies, is a part-time resident of the region.</p><p>___</p><p>Information from: The Times-News, http://www.magicvalley.com</p><img src="http://admatch-syndication.mochila.com/images/ad.gif?aid=68065978&bid=informcom" /></div><div id="copyright"><div>
