Vail Resorts is buying Peak Resorts.

Seconded!

Thanks, and you, too, BG! Thinking of trying to organize a trip with grandparents as built-in baby sitters to Whiteface. Still never been to LP.

Will be inflexible on the date most likely, which sounds like it could lead to a real hit-or-miss scenario. Still think it would be fun to check the place out.

I always say, "one does not plan a trip to Whiteface", but given the infant situation, this would be the rare exception. There will be plenty of shopping, dining, Olympic site visiting, etc.... to keep the grandparents interest while babysitting. Sounds like a great plan, just have to hope the snow is there.

I felt WF had improved on that respect? I've had good luck at WF the last few years. I thought their snow making and grooming is decent enough to overcome the iffy conditions.

Or perhaps I was just luckier the last couple times I was up there.

Admittedly, I'm going to have a kid born any day now, and I (selfishly) have no idea how this will affect my skiing this season, but I imagine I'm going to go from about 20 days to less than 10 days.

EDIT: The upside (so this doesnt sound too depressing) is I'm already thinking it's going to be so cool enrolling them in learn-to-ski when they're 3.5 years old.

Congrats to both you and EPB! Might not be a popular opinion but teaching your kids yourself can be a blast. Since my kids started skiing at 4, 100% of their skiing has been with me and 95% of mine has been with them. That's a boat load of quality time, wouldn't change a thing.

We got our peak passes in the mail today. They were mailed in a branded envelope, with a small book including a page on each mountain. Also included were several stickers and a branded goggle wipe. Best presentation i recollect over a lifetime of picking up passes and more typical of a healthy company than one about to sell.

So this was for the Peak hills only, right? Haven’t received mine yet.
