We can have an AZ summit at MRG on 1/27/15. Why not? Price is right.

Looks like they raised the rates substantially, especially for multi- day tickets. If I remember correctly last year was only $69 for a two day ticket & $102 for a three day pass. Also looks like they are only offering deals for three consecutive days next season. In the past they ran one or two five consecutive day appreciation days.

It appears Stowe is trying very hard not to be the first NE resort to break the $100 a day mark.....so they are coming up with other ways to increase ticket prices and revenue without making headlines

They just raised the walk up rate last year to $98. Historically they raise rates every 2-3 years. I don't think Stowe has a problem breaking the $100 mark, maybe next year, maybe the year after. They do offer a considerable discount to the walk up rate if you purchase your ticket on line ahead of time. I think the on line rate was only $82 last year ( I could be off by a buck or two).

I think they had less than 10 trails open around that time this year.

past performance is not indicative of future results.

Ski what the mountain gives you! Otherwise some of those early season skiing days would tough to take for some of you!

I know Hume would slap me for it but the past few January's are enough to have me not planning any trips then and just watching the weather.

Anybody have the email address to get on the Vermont VIP Ski Pass annual distribution?
That's the one no-brainer SOTC deal that I seem to always forget about.

Not sure if this is it http://www.skivermont.com/email-signup.
Pretty sure they go on sale Oct. 1 & are usually sold out in less than a day.

Not necessarily. I know I don't post up the info till after I already secured my coupons. By that time it might already be to late.

Last two years bought them according to the posts on here - I do not check my personal email frequently enough to rely on that!

Ace website is back up. These are any day use tickets with NO blackouts. Be hard pressed to find a much better deal than these.

Just forwarding to this thread! Looks good though!

Yeah & I'm the guy who posts it, you can go back & check. I think last year they were sold out before noon (at least the VT. 3 was). There was a clitch last year & you could still order after they sold out but they didn't honor the orders placed after the sell out. If you want to wait for me to post it again that's fine by me since I will have already placed my order. Also I don't get informed about it by e-mail, usually get a post card in the mail. Surprised you don't since you've ordered them before. Last year was the first year of on-line ordering I believe. Previous to that they sent the order form in the mail & you had to be quick to send it back to them with a check to cover your order.
