                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                    THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31 1996 AND 1995
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

         In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the changes in financial position and
results of operations for the interim periods reported.

         Revenues are subject to material seasonal variations with approximately
90% of the Company's revenue recognized during the winter months of each fiscal
year. Interim operating results may not be taken as fairly representative of the
estimated results for a full fiscal year.

         The financial statements should be read with reference to "management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
contained herein and the "Notes to financial Statements" set forth in the
Company's 10-K filing for the year ended April 30, 1996.

NOTE 2 - PROVISION FOR INCOME TAX

         There is no income tax provision for the interim periods reported
because the Company has significant net operating loss carryforwards which are
fully reserved.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATIONS

           THREE MONTHS ENDING JULY 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
                              ENDING JULY 31, 1995

Statements in this report covering future performance, developments,
expectations or events, constitute forward looking statements which are subject
to a number of risks and uncertainties which might cause actual results to
differ materially from stated expectations.

Effective March 20, 1996 the Board of Directors of Crystal Mountain, Inc.
approved the change of the Company's fiscal year from a September 30 year end,
to a new fiscal year end of April 30, (the fiscal year end used in its most
recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission). This form 10-QSB is
the first quarterly report filed under the new fiscal year. This change was made
to coincide with the end of the Company's primary operating season and to smooth
out the work flow for the staff throughout the year allowing the Company to
reduce overhead costs. The new fiscal quarters are July 31, October 30, and
January 31. The transition period report was the seven months ended April 30,
1996.

The Company generates most of its revenues (93%) during the winter months with
the vast majority of earnings occurring between December 20 and March 10. During
the late spring, summer and early fall, the Company offers scenic rides to the
summit of the mountain on two chairlifts, fine dining at the Summit House
Restaurant, and mountain biking, hiking, tennis, and disc golf. There are RV
hookups, a base area restaurant, both hotel and condominium accommodations
offering meeting rooms serving tourists and groups. Significant expenses are
incurred to prepare for the ski season during the summer and fall.

Historically the summer recreational operations generated a loss when isolated
from the summer and fall ski season preparation costs. This and last summers
results have been negatively impacted by road construction on 10 miles of the
main highway to the resort. This construction is nearly complete and will be
completed before this winters ski season. In light of the road construction and
the previous years poor performance, management critically reviewed the summer
recreation operations and developed a plan that retained these operations while
getting them as close to break-even as possible. Thus far the results of these
actions have reduced losses from summer operations.

For the three months ended July 31, 1996, revenues are down $45,000 ( 17.7% )
from the prior year while total expenses were reduced $123,000 ( 7.5% )
resulting in a reduction of $78,000 ( 7.5% ) of net loss during the period.
Mountain Operations, Food Services, General and Administration, and Depreciation
Expense were all down 13.7%, 14.1%,

                                       -7-
<PAGE>   8
6.5%, and 9.6% respectively. Interest expense was up 6.0% due to higher
outstanding debt that resulted from last winters' poor performance.

The Company's total bank debt is $4,842,000 at July 31, 1996, up $450,000 from
$4,392,000 at July 31, 1995. Last winter we were unable to open for skiing until
December 15. This late opening combined with warm and wet weather resulted in
less skier visits and revenues. This did not allow us to pay down our debt as
far as the prior year. This is the third year now that the Company has faced
losses. The current bank line and investments are estimated to allow for summer
operations, summer maintenance programs, and preseason preparations for the 1996
- - 1997 ski season if we open for skiing by mid January 1997.

As stated in earlier reports the Company was evaluating alternatives and would
take several steps to regain profitability. The Company reorganized and
down-sized which has led to slightly better results for the three months ended
July 31, 1996, than the results of the prior year.

Management was also simultaneously investigating options that would involve a
capital infusion. On July 31, 1996, the Company signed a Letter of Intent with
Boyne USA, Inc. This understanding calls for the acquisition of the assets and
liabilities of the Company, together with a commitment from Boyne USA to invest
a minimum of $15 million of on-going capital improvements during the next ten
years, $8 million of which are to be made during the next five years. In
addition, Crystal Mountain shareholders will retain their lift privileges and,
following completion of the transaction, these lift privileges may be honored at
other Boyne USA ski areas. This event was reported as a subsequent event on the
transition report for the seven months ended April 30, 1996. The letter of
intent was filed as an exhibit with the transition report filing.
