People like you are why we can't have nice things and why this ski season has almost 0 chance of going the distance.

I like Wildcat, but it is almost 4 hours from where I am located. Never tried Sunapee, it's about same driving distance as Mt. Snow, but looks smaller. That said, unfortunately the 14-day/7-day quarantine is the least of our issues with ski resorts this season. I am more concerned for my wife's...

I completely forgot about the VT quarantine thing... that basically eliminates us from using the EPIC Pass anyways as day-trippers from MA. You are not completely wrong, but Vail/EPIC customer service has been abhorrent dating back to last season when COVID was cancelling the season. People have...

Yeah, it looks like I'd need to buy a pass (or 2) for this season using the credit, then come Dec. 8 or 18, whatever that date is, get my refund/credit for 21/22. I don't think I want to basically give EPIC a 2-year free loan. Also, I believe the 12 minute wait time is a joke. On TGR people are...

Early on, EPIC was making it so you had to have an injury or the season had to be canceled/cut short due to COVID. IKON, meanwhile, had stated from the beginning that anyone could roll over from 20/21 to 21/22 for any reason. EPIC's latest response I believe was to adopt the same policy as IKON...

I think you guys are right. I think we'd need to buy a 20/21 pass and then not use it by 12/8/20 I believe it is and then cancel/roll over to next season. Basically, I need to loan my money to EPIC for 2 years if I want to go that route.

For EPIC, does anyone know if you can roll over your credit to 21/22 rather than 20/21? Of course, it's impossible to get ahold of anyone at Epic. I've tried multiple times over the past couple of months with zero responses. Awesome customer service, really. What a shitshow.

Given the changes (or lack thereof) when it comes to COVID, EPIC's 'pass protection' is a complete joke. They are expecting people to pay full price for a pass that you are almost assuredly not going to be able to use for unlimited access/tickets. They are also NOT using the same guidelines as...

Just FYI - everyone can easily get 1%+ or 1.5%+. One of the biggest, easiest-to-use online accounts, Ally Bank is 1.5%.

This. On a lift you're crammed next to someone almost all of the time but at least moving. That's one positive for that scenario. But like smellytele said, the crowding at the base of the lifts to wait in line is just as bad with people on top of one another. There is 0 chance of instituting...

I didn't think of this until yesterday, but even when lockdown/shelter-in-place fets lifted, who is going to feel comfortable riding up on a chair lift right next to a stranger or being in a gondola/bubble with someone who could be carrying the virus? Kind of scary to think about it honestly.

I'm only speaking of this specific lawsuit. You have to be a real piece of work to have started this lawsuit. I hope they lose and everyone loses money on the ordeal. Very rarely would I side with the large conglomerate company. In this case, I'm 100% on Vail's side.

It's less in support of Vail and more so just not supporting some douche/douches who are suing for what we all know is a ridiculous reason. Seriously, how big of an asshole do you have to be to initiate this lawsuit? This is a sport, a luxury item, and always labeled 'as conditions permit'. Why...

Agreed. I didn't check the site, but I would be surprised if they mention October - June and there's no way they actually guarantee skiing from October - June.
