Thanks for the link, but please, please, give it a rest on the ASC debate, okay?

It is a great deal. It would be nice if folks acknowledged how much this company does to keep YOU skiing into May. No debate, just fact.
EDIT - looking at it again, it really IS an unbelieveable deal. Those high elevations up on K-ton and Sugarloaf when things start to warm up are an absolute blast.

It is a great deal. Thanks for posting. If I lived close to a good ASC resort I might take advantage, but these places are still too crowded for my tastes for weekend trips. However, I agree with Greg and I kinda scratch my head wondering why you joined this forum to counter what, in your head, is some sort of anti-ASC climate at AlpineZone. Personally, I think you'll find more grizzled, anti-ASC types on the NELSAP board at Snowjournal. From my experience reading this board, many of the AlpineZone skiers go for corporate skiing at places like Jiminy Peak and Mount Snow. Plus look at my topic, Do you own or rent. 71% of respondents are upper crust home owners. What I'm trying to say is you're barking up the wrong tree. I mean, you've got interesting arguments, counters, zingers, what have you, but I think they're lost on this particular audience.

You know what I would really like to see from you soon? A trip report.

Man you are WAY out of line. And what is this obsession with "trip reports" anyways? tell you what: we'll put up a poll: if the consensus is for me to leave, I will abide by it, how is that? Just remember before I leave, any company that blows snow in October AND March AND offers all kinds of great tic deals to get the middle-class on the hill, you should be supporting, NOT bashing. :P

Thanks for the tip about the pass...

Personally, I enjoy the trip reports...keep them coming.
My goal is to visit all New England Areas, no matter how large or small and seeing the trip reports often helps me plan which one I will visit next.

Now you're just being over-sensitive!

I responded to what I think of your feeling of an anti-ASC climate on AlpineZone in my previous post.

I never called for a vote on whether you should stay or go, although I see you took care of that one on your own.

Do whatever you please, and know that I will followup anytime I please.

My request for a trip report was an opportunity for you to show some credibility.

Hi ASC,
No complaints with their "Spring" pass ...just wish their
best & brightest would formulate more consistent season pass prices before the season begins...
Sugarloaf ~$700+ higher than SundayRiver??? If anything, I think it's stuff like this that leaves a bad taste in some patrons minds..... But maybe things can improve....and anyday in ski country beats a day anywhere else
