operating results for the interim period presented have been made. The results

results to be expected for the year.
Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
June 30, 1997
Note E: Going concern
-------------
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred
recurring losses from operations and has a deficit in working capital. As a
result, the Company has experienced severe liquidity problems and has been
forced to restructure a portion of its long-term debt. These factors raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management is working with its primary lenders to monitor the status of its
indebtedness and further restructuring of its long-term debt is expected. In
addition, management has commenced operations in the hospitality segment and is
currently evaluating plans to reduce staffing and other costs. Management is
also planning to commence collection efforts on certain related party notes
receivable.
There can be no assurance that management will be successful in its efforts to
restructure debt, reduce costs, operate profitably, or collect amounts due. If
the Company is unsuccessful in its efforts, it may be necessary to undertake
such other actions as may be appropriate to preserve asset value. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

entered into a management contract with Barrington Hotel, Donald Schofield,
Robert Schofield and Jodie Wood to provide management services for The
Barrington Hotel located in Branson, Missouri. The hotel is a 149-room, limited
service hotel. Under the terms of a previous letter of intent, Sierra
Hospitality Services, Inc., began management of the hotel on June 1, 1997.
On June 9, 1997, the Company's subsidiary, Sierra Hospitality Services, Inc.,
entered into a management contract with Great Southern Bank FSB to provide
management services for Brighton Place Motel located in Branson, Missouri. The
motel is a 78-room, limited service motel. Sierra Hospitality Services, Inc.,
began management of the motel on June 11, 1997. Approximately $2,500 of
management fee income was earned as of June 30, 1997.
On May 28, 1997, the Board accepted the effective resignation of Raymond
Bouchard as a Director of the Corporation due to his non-participation in
corporate affairs.
The Company's construction subsidiary, Sierra-Rockies Development Corporation,
contributed $(173,868) to corporate operations during the quarter ending June
30, 1997. The construction subsidiary is a company specializing in the
installation of manufactured houses.
The Company is continuing to pursue its Wandering Star Hotel & Casino project
located in Cripple Creek, Colorado.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------
The Company's financial condition remains unchanged from the previous report in
its March 31, 1997 Form 10-QSB.
The Company holds certain promissory notes secured by real estate in Cripple
Creek, Colorado, as a result of its sale of said property to Colorado Escrow,
Inc., in June of 1996. These promissory notes have previously been written down.
In June of 1997 the holder of the first mortgage upon said project commenced a
foreclosure, which resulted in the sale of said property at foreclosure sale on
June 18, 1997. The Company, by virtue of its secured position through deeds of
trust, holds an equity redemption upon said foreclosure which expires on or
about 9/22/97. Management has not determined whether to exercise its equity
redemption in order to reacquire said property.
