Just did the $39.00 ski/lunch thing at Bromley yesterday. The snow was great and the lunch was good. If you can get out on a tuesday it is a good deal.

OBAMA DAY ($10 Lift Tickets!!)

Inauguration Day, Tuesday January 20th, will be OBAMA DAY at Ragged Mountain Resort! In a nod to the need to get the economy moving, skiers and riders can enjoy the inauguration from the comfort of the slopes for $10. Revelers can just march up to the ticket window and say, "I CAN'T WAIT FOR BARACK OBAMA'S STIMULUS PACKAGE" and get a ticket for just $10. Help us welcome the 44th president by skiing and riding in his honor!

Not sure if this has been posted but Rossignal is giving away free gear if you use a Rossignol Google search engine. Basically it is a contest and you can earn ponts everytime you search that can be redeemed for free Rossi gear (hats, helmets, ski bags and gift certificates).

If you click the icon below it takes you to the search and win site:


Hey I just wanted to thank all those who signed up for the Rossi search and win! I got a new pair of poles (which I needed very badly) coming to me in the mail! So I guess this thing works.

Hopefully I can get the alias goggles by the time my current ones are too scratched up to use!

Do you know if that will be the price at the ticket window or do you have to buy it through Liftopia? Their website didn't specify but I believe last year it was through Liftopia. Last year you could also use that to buy the discounted next day ticket. So if it's the same this year you could ski Friday for $9 and Sat for $39.

I believe it's at the window. You can also tack on Sunday for $39 too.

Come to the Kingdom!!!

Best deal in VT....Stay at the Comfort Inn St. Johnsbury. I used to put 5 of us in a Sweet Suite for $175 and it included two adult lift tickets to Burke. ($100 value). That's $75 a night incuding continental breakfast, indoor pool and all the elevator tag your kid's can handle. Burke's the best hidden gem in the Northeast, no lines, great tress, good snow, awesome PUB, old school vibe, and did I mention...NO LINES
COME TO THE KINGDOM!!!:flag:

Vermont ski deal list

I've been updating a list of Vermont ski ticket deals on my blog. They range from great midweek rates at places like Mad River, to packing a car full of people and skiing for a total of $80 at Magic Mountain. Vermonters, telemark skiers, women and military folks can ski for less on designated days at several resorts. There are also some decent discount cards, the Catamount Trail member coupon book and The Point Ski & Ride program to consider. Feel free to browse the list.

Black NH , 1/28, $10 half-day

Wacky Wednesday...
This Wednesday, January 28th, we will be offering $10 half-day lift tickets from 12:30 - 4pm... because we feel like it! That's right, just show up at 12:30, and you can ski 'til 4pm for just $10! But wait, there's more, we will be offering $3 Draught Moat Brown beers in the Lostbo Pub, and there will be music from Jeff Conley, just in case you missed him last weekend!
If you can't make it, don't worry, we're having another Retro Day this weekend, bring in old pictures from Black for lift ticket discounts! $10 off for each decade before 1980... pre 1950's ski free! The only catch is you can't get the pictures off our website! For more information, check out the calendar of events page. Jeff Conley will also be back for Apres Ski, with neat "vintage" food and beverage specials in the pub!

I can't seem to locate web info to back it up, but I heard on the radio the other day that Valvoline is running a promotion for a lift ticket at Loon with your oil change.
