                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                   SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 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


            SIX MONTHS ENDING OCTOBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS
                            ENDING OCTOBER 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 second quarterly report filed under the new fiscal year. The change was made
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
31, and January 31. The transition period report was the seven months ended
April 30, 1996.

The Company generates the 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. The highway construction was completed in November,
1996. 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 our losses from
summer operations.

For the six months ended October 31, 1996, revenues are down $164,000 (21.4%)
from the prior year while operating expenses were reduced $278,000 (12.1%)
resulting in a reduction of $114,000 (7.4%) of net operating loss for the
period. Mountain operations, food services, and general and administration
were down by 6.1%, 14.2% and 17.7% respectively. Depreciation and interest
expense were up 10.6% and 6.9% respectively resulting in an overall loss before
income taxes of $57,000 (2.7%) less than the six months ended October 31, 1995.
A tax expense of $13,000 for 1996 and a tax benefit of $70,000 results in an
increase of the net after tax loss of $26, 000 (1.3%) in 1996 than 1995.

The Company's total bank debt is $5,492,000 at October 31, 1996, up $245,000
from $5,247,000 at October 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 Company opened for the 1996 - 1997 ski season on November
22, 1996. At this time it is expected that the Company will not borrow up to the
line limit due to cash flow generated from operations from the early opening.

As stated in earlier reports the Company was evaluating alternatives toward
making several steps to regain profitability. The Company reorganized and
down-sized which has led to slightly better results for the six months ended
October 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. 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. The sale of the Company is expected to be voted on
by the stockholders January 28, 1997.
