Epic Pass sale ends tonite, looking at the day pass for attitash/wildcat unrestricted for 60ish... Might have to make a point to do a day at wildcat

Wachusett has a night pass on sale for $199. Good between Christmas and March 9th after 7pm. I actually just bought one. Feel like I just need to be on skis more to stay in ski shape these days. While spending 2 hours at Wachusett seems like it wouldn't help much, I think it will make a difference for me.

It certainly won't hurt. If anything it'll help you work on technique and keep the muscle memory fresh. Weather it does anything for actual muscle strength or stamina, that's debatable. I can say that skiing my 500 ft molehill in PA doesn't do anything with the later, but skiing there often has made me better from a technique standpoint.

I could ski Cannon today for $84. Could also get a coin for giving them 3 cans of food to give to someone else. The place is about a third open.
Wet powder, meh

One of my old high school friends started skiing at 40 or so. Skied with him 10 times and we went everywhere but Cannon.
He ended up at Cannon one day and called me "I get it, there's the top, front 5..."
Still haven't been there with him. When we go I'll show him the fun solitary stuff.
His wife won't let him ski glades.
Edit He's also not allowed to smoke pot.
That's his thing, file a under life is to short.

How do the financials of this program work out? Is ll bean paying the respective mountains to make up the ticket cost difference?
