Those are the liftopia deals. A lot of areas are now linking up with liftopia directly. Magic did it last year and there are a few others as well.

That's last year's info, but given SRF never operates with stations in NH, it's likely that it's illegal there. I do know that that's the reason why there are no participating gas stations in NJ.

They really need to beef up MA though, I gave that advice last year so we'll see if they listened and add some stations, they are really great at responding to their customer's feedback.

I don't think it is illegal in NH because Irving gas usually does it every year here.

The Irving pass is a pretty good for a last minute option, especially midweek. I used it once going to Burke, told my brother and mother the day before to go to Irving the day before, and I got a 2 for 1.

And Killington agreed to have Pico 2 for 1 Sunday through Friday. Midweek (considering that they are closed Tue. and Wed.) is no biggie as others mentioned but Sunday is gold!

Now Jay Peak and Pico are 2 fer options on Sunday! There will be more to come!

Plus the Ride and Ski Tour will stop at Jay Peak on March 1st and card holders ski on a 2 fer - on a Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird. I always just assumed that since they literally had no stations in NH, yet a few right on the border towns in VT. Kindof scratching my head on that one now.

We will definitely try and hit Pico on a Sunday this yr! It would be cool if they did a tour stop there too.
