Stowe, $35, 2/4/9

Next Wednesday (2/4) is Woodchuck Day at Stowe, with $35 lift tickets--spread the word!

Got this in an email from Stowe today. Not even posted on the web yet.

Last year, they gave a free Stowepoints card to the first 500. We'll see....

One of the best deal's I've seen since 1985!

Thanks. I'm definitely going to be there. I was planning on going to Stratton because I can get $20 tickets through my season's pass with Mountain Creek, but this is even better.

I think I'm all in for that April deal. Was originally planning on doing a Bush-Stowe weekend those days, but may push that trip up a week early and hit Killington up. Two days, $50. There.
