Does anyone know if EpicPass does a spring promo that allows you to ski in the spring "free" when you purchase you next season pass?

this page implies, to me, that they do NOT offer that-
http://www.snow.com/epic-pass/pass-benefits/spring-benefits.aspx

and i see they've announced that the 17/18 pass info will be announced in March

To date, they haven't

The Epic Pass has always been valid for 12 months from the Start of the US or European ski season, plus the length of the next season for their resort, Perisher, in Australia

So unless the change something, the passes for the US won't become valid until one of their North American properties opens next fall.

With Whister, and their summer operations become part of the EPIC pass, they might do something like say an October first through the following September 30th season length to account for that???

They did not last season. We bought ours in March of last year and it did not become valid until October.

I wasn't last year either and probably never was. The spring skiing benefit only helps those who are new pass holders otherwise there is no point!


those benefits of SWAF and BuddyPass are funny. you get a discounted ticket but still paying over $100 for the big resorts!!

Epic Local. Considering Rocky Mountain Super Pass for next season to change it up and add an A Basin or Loveland season pass.

This is a perfect combo that I'll think you'll come to like a lot. This was my combo...if you do that and in the spring buy a abasin spring/next year pass for like 300 (or even less?) bucks you have amazing variety and close. Eldora is on it now right? Its worth the plus for the Steamboat days too IMO.



Annnd its definitely worth the extra dough for a long weekend down at CB and six days at Steamboat. Wicked good deal!
