Saw a notice up today at the school I work at: this Sunday, March 14th, is teacher appreciation day at Crotched Mountain. Teachers who show up with a school I.D. or other proof of employment ski free. Family members of teacher get a discounted rate.

KMart brought their spring pass back. $169 + 7% sales tax. Starts March 22nd.

You can also buy a 2011 season pass and start using it on March 22nd. They added two floaters to the blackout pass.

Where did you find the Stowe deals? I can't find it on their web site and that 2-day deal is better than Liftopia.

How do I take advantage of the deal (in particular the 2-day pass on 4/3-4)?

Sugarbush has a Spring Pass valid March 20th through the rest of the season which will probably extend well into April, if not longer. It is $229 plus tax. Also anyone who buys an All-Mountain or Mount Ellen 2010/2011 pass can ski the rest of the season for free. Buy a day ticket and try it out and you can credit that towards a season pass if you buy that same day. All season pass prices are the same as last spring for the second year in a row.
