He had met Bill Rounds in Aspen, and after Bill's father passed away, Bill invited Berge to the area to check out his lumber company. Berge decided to move to Breckenridge shortly after his son was born in the summer of 1960. His family stayed in Aspen while he worked on a place to live. He initially began working in the lumber yard and stayed in a house on Main Street. He would then help to develop the ski area.
