Skiing on the Cheap - 2014-15 Edition

[dlague]

Okemo has a ticket pack onsale till the end of October.

$199 not worth it! Sugarbush 4 pak $219 - a little better but not worth it IMO Magic's at $139 3 pak is not too bad however I would not get that either.

Always wondered why they split the husbands and wives on to two different days. My guess the couples will pay full price for at least two lift tickets on those days based on gender.

If you are going to copy from Pico's website, there is yet another deal VT and NH residents can ski a full day for $29 midweek!

I struggle with the value of those cards - I think if you can ski mid week they are great. But I can do much better than 25% off on weekends. At least in this case the free lift ticket up front makes it more enticing. Unlike Kilington's where you have to use a certain number of times to get a free lift ticket.

The real value comes with early or late season pricing and with Sunday afternoon tickets. Depending on what I'm doing on Saturday evenings, I may not want to get up at 6AM to make the trek up to North Conway. The value card gets me on the hill for $22.50 for the afternoon. Early or late in the year, when they're charging say $50 on the weekends, you can get on the hill for $37.50.

and, I've got a couple of floating holidays I can use on short notice this winter. I'll take 50% off for a midweek powder day

Hunter mountains Big Lift card works basically the same way with midweek, weekend & holiday discounts. They also offer the one free day up front if purchased early. Hunter takes it one step further though offering either one, two or three days free up front depending on price. For a person planning to use the card strictly on weekends & holidays it may pay for them to purchase the card with the three free days up front then use the discount for any additional days they plan to ski.

edit: plus you can get the same discount for a friend for one day.

Such a deal. Is there a time limit on purchasing this?

Middlebury sits smack tab in the middle of the central Vt. snow belt.

Wouldn't be a bad choice on a pow day.

Not that it's a bad choice any other day either.
