None of the perfect family skiers at the top of the hill are wearing helmets. I see that a lot. For shame!

As always a good deal. Hey RivercOil, don't overbuy this year!

NH Weekday Deals in March ?

Has anybody spotted weekday deals for any of these NH areas: Wildcat, Attitash, Loon or Cannon?

My friends and I will be going up in March, renting a place, and skiing Monday-Friday.

Thanks,
Woody

This map/brochure has had good coupons the past few years. You can pay the few bucks to buy some or find it for free where other travel brochures are offered.

I keep resisting buying more prepaid discounts. I think I have somewhere around 25 right now. I can definitely use those up plus hit some other areas via normal discounts. I don't think I'll eat any tickets this year.

Looking at the clues in that photo, I think it's a fairly old picture.

Loon deals are tough to come by, even weekday. For just a day or two I don't think their frequence skier card makes sense.

Wildcat, 40$ fridays.
