That warm up next week does not look like much of a warm up.

Thinking about my third try at our first Magic Trip for President's Day weekend. I've booked rooms twice in the last two years only to be blown out by weather.
- Am I right in thinking Magic will be less crowded that nearby mountains?
- Will there be ticket limits in place? Should I pre-buy?
- I realize it's a week and a half out, but thoughts on the weather? Worried about that warm up middle of next week.
You guys getting there this weekend should really be in for a treat.
-Yes, Magic will be less crowded than Stratton, Bromley, and Okemo
-Yes, there is a ticket limit in place every day. Pre-buy for savings or get there early.
-There will be snow on the mountain during Prezi week. What do you mean 'blown out by weather'? I'm looking back at my photos from the last few Febs and see I was skiing backcountry lines each year. If I was skiing BC, the mountains surely had plenty of terrain open.

You disagree with a business charging full price for their best product?
How about free powder days and $61 for the WROD?
They always charge the Powder Day rate for 6"+ though?No, I disagree with jacking up ticket prices (with as little at 3 hours notice) when the rate as already been advertised.
Every major New England ski area will have their "best product" on display tomorrow. The price of a walk-up ticket tomorrow will be whatever it was promised to be when the mountain released it's rates in the Fall. White ribbon of death or powder day. Magic is the exception.

The specials page on their website clearly says Throwback Thursday rates don't apply if there's 6+ inches of powder though...or are you saying this page was changed just today to add that verbiage?
Been there all year. Last year too. This is why we can't have nice things.

That's what I suspected...so someone is complaining about something because they didn't actually pay attention to the details originally. Nice!
No, I get this has been the policy for a few years.
