Question: When Rose Valley Resort Co . ( RVRRC ) was developing its ski resort in the Wasatch Mountains near Park City, Utah, it sold parcels

When Rose Valley Resort Co.(RVRRC) was developing its ski resort in the Wasatch Mountains near Park City, Utah, it sold parcels of land in the resort village to third parties. Each sales contract reserved the right of approval over the conduct of certain businesses on the property including ski rentals. For fifteen years, RVRC permitted Sheila Sports, LLC, to rent skis in competition with RVRC's ski rental outlet.
When RVRC opened a new mid-mountain ski rental outlet, it revoked Sheila's permission to rent skis. This meant that most skiers who flew into Salt Lake City and shuttled to Rose Valley had few choices: they could carry their ski equipment with them on their flights, take a shuttle into Park City and look for cheaper ski rentals there, or rent from RVRC. Sheila filed a suit in a federal district court against RVRC. Was RVRC's action an attempt to monopolize in violation of Section 2 of the Sherman Act?
