2023/2024 Season Passes

[RH29]

My ski trip for this year is booked (St. Anton/Arlberg and Davos/Klosters) but I'm dying to make it out to McCall for a long weekend on Indy. Close to Boise and Brundage and Tamarack both look like great midsize resorts. Maybe next year.

Define "close to Boise." 110 miles or so.

2 hours and 20 minutes from the airport isn't bad at all. That's a regular Sunday daytrip, each way, for me.

It's not if you plan to drive to McCall and make a base there and hit Tamarack, Brundage, and the Little Ski Hill (yes, the latter exists).

Never heard of the Little Ski Hill, but if I make it out there, I'll check it out.

And yep that's the plan. 2h9m from Boise to McCall and from there it's 18min to Brundage and 28 to Tamarack. Probably will do three and a half days of skiing. Never would've even thought about these places if it weren't for Indy.

It’s the town hill just west of McCall and on the way to Brundage.

Looks like Indy is not happy with Ski Cooper.

Indy Pass Restricts Partners’ Reciprocals with Ski Cooper, Operators Weigh In - Ski Area Management

THIS REPORT WAS UPDATED ON AUG. 14 SAM Magazine—Portland, Ore., Aug. 4—The role and impact of reciprocal pass agreements has been put in the spotlight as Indy Pass has requested its partner resorts terminate their reciprocal deals with Ski Cooper, Colo., whose large and growing roster of pass...

Granby had an agreement with Cooper then suddenly it disappeared. (it was replaced with days at Loveland) Didn't understand at first but now understand the pressure with Indy that they just signed onto last year. I was looking forward to using those days but will get there anyways with the Colorado Gems Card. Love Sunlight but would like to see Indy step up its game in Colorado (Monarch, Loveland, Powderhorn Come to mind). Cooper still seems chummy with Powder Alliance so the pass is still useful

Nice to see that Shawnee just added to their pass 3 free days at Plattekill. Makes their pass a considerably better deal IMO - particularly if using them as a core area and getting the Indy add on - as Indy does not include any Catskills skiing.

I want to go to Kicking Horse BC. One place I won't be skiing next year, Kicking Horse BC. My record of 50 years sking and never out west, top that.

Surprised this didn't get posted, cannot imagine I will ever ski in PA but would assume a nice add for the NY city folk.
