Where are the wickets?
Does anybody still ski at a resort that uses wickets? I have needs.

Big Sky has gone back to wickets. Everything old is new again.
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

Does anyone know why the resorts switched back? Too much ticket swapping? Originally Posted by pipedream

You can usually get a volume discount by looking on shitty jackets in the back of the thrift stores.

Maybe a dumb question, but what is the alternative to wickets? Other than rfid passes, that is.
Does anyone remember the pre-wicket days of having lift tickets stapled to your clothes? I do.
