2009-2010 Deals

[Geoff]

Up to four $50.00 day tickets at Killington. They include sales tax so these tickets are cheaper than last year's Ski Club Card product. They're blacked out the same 17 days as the blackout season pass. Turkey Day Friday/Saturday; Xmas week thru Dec 31; MLK Saturday/Sunday; Presidents Week Saturday thru Friday.

This offer ends on October 15th.

Descente will be doing there Passport program again. Last year I bought a jacket for $220 and used 14 of the lift tickets that came with it. That comes to $15.71 a day and the jacket is quite nice. Most of tickets didn't have blackout dates so I used Okemo, Jay, Bretton on Pres Weekend when my Mount Snow pass was blacked out. No details yet on which areas will be included this year, and which ones will have blackout dates. They've been increasing the number of areas each year, so hopefully that continues. The Descente online store reopens on Sept 1, but you can already see the available jackets. Probably can get a better deal searching the internet...

Also some western stuff coming out already.

Colorado Gems Card, $10...

Tahoe 6 pack, these sold out quick last year. Can probably do a little better with other deals, but that would be a lot more work...

The Snowbomb Tahoe Card already went up $10, and it looks like it probably doesn't have a free Donner Ski Ranch ticket this year...

I've used Snowbomb.com to score cheap Windham tickets also.

Oh yeah, I forgot Snowbomb expanded to eastern ticket sales.

When I had some time to kill last year I used goggle maps to see what it would take to use all the Descente tickets. Had to use two maps due to google limitations. So this is just a fun little thing I made that I thought I'd share. Goes from NYC to NYC, would be one crazy trip...

You can go to the Connecticut Ski Council website wwwl.skiclub.com to check on the CSC awareness dates for 2009-2010. These are days when you need to show up, show your CSC affiliated ski club card and score reasonable lift tickets though the prices are nudging higher than the past. Goos variety of maountains this year with Killington absent, but plenty of skiing is available. The bulk tickets for CSC should be available in a few weeks.

Nuts! I didn't know about Snowbomb.com until reading your post today. Logged in, clicked the link to East Coast resorts and found this:

Sorry, but we have sold out of lift tickets for East Coast resorts. Check back next season for even more discounts!!

Maybe next year.

It's a bit early for Snowbomb to have East Coast deals. Check back in November/December.
