Try sending an email to Gregory Hassett at thewebunit@localsyr.com or ghassett@tactivedigital.com


He seems to be in charge of the sale of these things for the syracuse station. He has always responded very quickly to the questions that I've sent him about the card in the past.


:cool:
Thanks again, emailed Gregory today, he said he'd make sure my charge was refunded. He also told me he'd let me know about this season's card. I emailed him back and said if I can get 4 Goreless cards for $99 apiece, I'll take them, if it's $149, I'll have to pass. Hey, it doesn't hurt to ask.

Ditto.

Without both Gore and Jay Peak, they're turning that thing into a really niche offering for people who don't mind a lot of car travel and prefer to ski at places that frankly most people realistically dont frequent. If you only use it 3 times, you're wasting money.

Your perspective might be a little different I think if you were from the Boston metro area. Cannon, BW and Burke are all close and can easily be based out of Littleton NH. Smuggs, Bolton and MRG are all easy to base out of Williston VT. So, there's two solid three day weekends of skiing at $25 a day.

Coming from Jersey, Cannon and Bretton Woods likely aren't on your radar just like Gore and Whiteface aren't on mine coming from where I live. I'd certainly love to ski both, but it's hard to justify the travel past NVT areas to do so.

Talking about Colorado and Utah: Anyone knows how to get discounted Utah lift tickets? I plan to be there in February...

Thanks.

I was in the same boat last year, couldn't find anything except for a ski city pass for cottonwood areas that was not that great a deal. I ended up stopping at the lift house shop at the base of BCC everyday for a discount ticket. , About $9 to $15 off day rate per day depending on day,/mountain. Snowbird iwas $84 weekday.

I was stymied in searching for discounts to ski areas near Quebec City a year ago but hope to do better this time around.

Friends and I plan to ski Mont Ste. Anne, Le Massif de Charlevoix, Stoneham, and maybe Massif du Sud -- a day or two at each. The advertised discount cards barely offer any deal if used 2x, so I didn't pull the trigger on them last year. Does anyone know of another discount, such as coupons? Of course, the exchange rate ($1 CDN = $0.78 UDS today) is a built-in discount but I'd still like to beat window price.

Thanks for any advice or assistance.

Penser la neige,
Woody
