SSB interviewed Egan and says he's moving to an advisory or consulting position next season.

I'm probably buying a pass for next season. Egan's departure is disappointing, but I really like the place. Slow chairlift included.

I'm starting to wonder about the viability of MCP as a company. They just bought Valle Nevado and took control of Sandia Peak, but they announced that Hesperus won't open for 24-25.

Simply untrue. Iirc, Washington is the deadliest mountain in the lower 48 for climbers/skiers.

Powderhorn is a nice addition. Looks like all the PGRI resorts except for Ragged. Still no Tahoe... 10% off cat skiing..meh.

Indy's Mogenson just posted an update on FB. Jay stays. Teasing new resorts announced tomorrow.

We're not mad Krusty.....just disappointed. 😁. To demonstrate your loyalty, you must go on all social media networks the next time Indy teases a new resort and post : "Maybe it's Vail! Please let it be Vail!"

How does that change anything? A PGRI pass holder that visits Jay with a Ragged pass sends $0 dollars to Indy. The exact same amount as a No Boundaries passholder visiting Dartmouth skiway (had Indy not strongarmed them off).

He doesn't say why Indy wouldn't let them control their own destiny. Is it the limitation on other partnerships? The whole 30 seconds it takes to look up a pass member for redemption? Ikon or Epic partnerships likely come with some degree of control, but Indy? Even the busiest Indy mountains...

PGRI had purchased Jay prior to this season, but agreed to keep it on Indy. Who knows what they'll do this year? Holding onto Jay blurs the lines a bit for Indy. PGRI is every bit as corporate an operator as Boyne or POWDR. Jay is also, as of now at least, the only resort in their portfolio...

Maybe Sundance. Ideal fit but they have a reciprocal deal with Cooper. Indy would require them to ditch that.

Not at all. They're making a few lifts private. They're also lifting the cap on season passes, inviting the unwashed masses in wholesale. It won't likely ever go fully private, especially with Wasatch Peaks nearby. I really enjoy powmow, at least the indy years iteration of it. Had a couple...

I bought one. Ethically conflicted about it. Indy has been so unwilling to play well in the sandbox with others, but have spent $250 already this year when work dropped me in the neighborhood of Indy resorts.

Yes

That is absolutely huge. Wow. I wouldn't thing Egan would go near that place. He must be it hing for a challenge.

Yeah. And the BMOM tix were super cheap last year. IIRC it was something like $15 Thursday/$25 Fridays? Screaming deal.

I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on No Boundaries. When Indy went full mobster, I bought a Ski Cooper pass. No Boundaries would round out the NE offerings nicely. Perhaps a few Cannon NH resident days too. Saddleback is offering passholders of other independent mountains in Maine $59...

It's time for a 23-24 cheapskates thread. No boundaries 23-24 is out. Tenney, Abram, Dartmouth, Granite Gorge and Whaleback. $119 gets you coupons that can be used for: One Saturday. One sunday + one weekday Three weekdays At each resort.
