Bump.

I'm a member of the Powder Alliance and am ready to get the season on!
You bought a Snowbasin Pass? Me too, I got the Sierra pass mostly to deal with my VR pass blackout dates and for the squaw/alpine benefits. Still at Snowbird?

No, I messed up :roll: I am a member of the "Best Benefit of the Wasatch" deal (Alta, Snowbird, Deer Valley, PCMR). I thought that this was the thread to talk about that. Ooops!

Wasn't there some pass you could buy that gave you access to every single resort nationwide? Or very close to it? It was totally astronomical and there was really no way it made sense to buy it because it costs more than buying a walk up ticket every day of the season would but I remember reading about it somewhere. I think it had to do with making a donation or something.

Basically a 10k donation to the US ski/snowboard team

If I'm not mistaken the Gold pass also gets you invites to the US Ski and Snowboard Teams annual black tie fundraising gala, at which point you'd more than likely get some up close "intel" to add to this thread
