Sounds like you’ve got it figured out.
If you don’t just “love” skiing in every shit condition multiplied by the lowest viz, a pass may not be worth it.
But my recommendation would be to buy the Alyeska pass.
-I had 22 of 102 days with 10-25” inches of snow last season at the resort.
If you only want to ski the North Face gates, I don’t even know…, I’d pick my days.
There is no real way of knowing if/when any of the NF gates will be open…
The resort is sweet for hauling ass through steep chop, even on pow days.
I prefer the heaviest of skis for our typical conditions.
Lots of low viz, I wear night lenses everyday until March.
Whichever way you choose, I imagine that we will see you, along with seemingly every other backcountry skier in the State, in the lineup on 4 for the Big Pow days.
