theoretically you'd also have to do that here in innsbruck when buying the season ticket, main place of residence should be in ibk, but i know several people from australia/NZ etc. who've managed to buy the season pass anyway.

Alpine Meadows Before Sept. 1 = $750 unlimited, no blackouts

Goes up $200 or so after Sept. 1. It went down $200 from last season to this season.

I liked paying $99 for my season pass to Mt. Hood Meadows. Of course, you have to wait until March for that price...

**grrrr** · 05-12-2006, 10:41 AM

Mt Baker $665 regular $610 early.

No, if you buy now you get 10 days, and april is free. Not 25 whenever you want.....

**bakers_dozen** · 05-12-2006, 11:13 AM

Is sunshine included in that? Last year if you wanted a Louise and Sunshine pass you had to get the big 3 for about $950 (student price)

really only 4 or so of the resorts are usufull, but a 7 month season makes up for that a bit

That's the same information I found on snow.com. At $379, I knew there was no way they were going to give you 25 days whenever you want.

Yup. still a decent deal. Wish I had the coin now, I wonder when they will kill it?

I'm sure it will be the same price when the season starts - Isn't it alwasy that way. They are just trying to get your money early by saying "Oooo, Ooooo, better buy it now before the price goes up." I've never purchased it this early, and the price has alwasy been the same in fall.

**FletchLives** · 05-12-2006, 11:19 AM

I paid 360 for a Abasin, Keystone, Breck, and 10 days each at Vail and Beaver

Hell of a deal I guess after seeing these other mountain prices

How did you get the $19 off? Or are you refering to the 2005/2006 season pass price?

Well, they only charge you $29 now and the remainder in September. That deal lasts until Sunday.

But as Below Zero points out, the price won't go up (or if it does, it'll go up by $10). WHat WILL happen, probably, is that some of the benefits won't be there. For ex., this free April at Vail/BC might not be around in the fall, and the 4 $40 lift tix might not either.

EDIT: I pulled the trigger a few days ago, the free April deal was too good to pass up.

**bubba-k** · 05-12-2006, 12:40 PM

bridger adult: $500 early vs. $570
18 and under: $300

I certainly don't feel wronged...

**LeeLau** · 05-12-2006, 12:41 PM

OMG - on the rest and Jackson Hole.

$ 1000 for W/B pass

**Buzzworthy** · 05-12-2006, 12:44 PM

Beaver Mountain, UT $220 if you had a pass last year, $235 otherwise, but goes up $35 every 15th of the month.

$33 day ticket last year, anticipate $35 this year as the old Germ lift from Alta is currently being installed as the main lift there to replace an old one.

6.3 days to pay off pass.

Mellow mountain, not very steep, but close and the price is right.

I heard that on the radio, but I couldn't find the deal online.... pretty rad though!

edit- seems you guys couldnt find it online either... I swear I heard it though. Not sure where the 25 days comes from if they meant april. Vail isn't open 25 days in April and if you add the 23 or so days it is open to the other 10, it gives you 33, not 25

Squatch · 05-12-2006, 01:08 PM

i actually believe they meant that is you bought it april 8th or so when it went on sale you could ski vail/beaver creek for free during the last month of this season. so basically you got the normal deal for 06/07 and any remaining days this season (15)

**smmokan** · 05-12-2006, 01:20 PM

Z was right above... its the usual 10 days at BC/Vail, with NEXT April free- so basically:

10 usual BC/Vail days
+
15 days free next April (around there, since BC closed this year on 4/16)
=
25 days of Vail/BC

And as for the prices, I think last year if you waited to buy in Sept/Oct the price went up $10-20, nothing big. Another perk this year is that you get 4 "buddy passes" you can use to get friends lift tickets for $40 instead of the rape-me-in-the-ass price of $81.
