That is the price after the first 1000 were sold.

If anyone has any Liftopia codes they won't be using, I'd love to score one. Thanks!

Just make sure that you use the code by today.

Can you read the restrictions on the Smuggler's Notch BOGO, in year's past they could be used on weekends. And I'm not seeing the Jay Peak BOGO, what are the restrictions on that one?

Both Smuggler's and Jay have holiday period blackout restrictions on the BOGO and Jay's are only valid Sun to Fri (meaning you can't use them on Saturdays). The Jay coupon is on the lower right hand corner of the 2nd page.

Probably a repeat in a couple threads but happening this weekend so:

Bring a new toy, a new article of clothing or five non-perishable food items to Okemo on Sunday, Dec 6, 2015 or Sunday, March 20, 2016 and ski the entire day for just $39! All donations collected will be distributed to Black River Good Neighbors' food bank in Ludlow, VT.

Please Note: A valid Real.Easy Card is required to take advantage of this lift access offer. If the skier/rider does not have one registered in their name, a card may be purchased for $5.

Funny! NH/VT skiers have deals every Sunday that are better for afternoon lift tickets ($34) or the same deal ($39) for Sunday Solution.

Thanks. That's what I figured. Jay Peak dialed back Saturday discounts a lot the last 3 or 4 years.

Bolton valley for $34. Good weekends, not holiday periods.

Don't belong to a ski club and need lodging? That's OK, they'll often take your money anyways in exchange for a bed in their lodge. Ask to come as a guest, or to be sponsored. The going price is $30-35 on the east coast. there's probably no usurious tax or other fees and you'll probably get free wireless. You get a shared bedroom, a full kitchen, a place to leave your gear and a great living room with fireplace. Maybe even a ride or shuttle to the mountain. You can share your stories and lies with like minded snowsports fans. Clubs always can use new members, so they are hopeful if you stay, you might become a member.

Ski and ride card. They pushed it too much with the price.

Not sure I should post this as it may be over used and disappear in future years when I want to use it but here it is...

Good advice. If anyone is looking for contact info and rates for the EICSL clubs in NH, I have a list. The going rate there is typically $25, with only a couple clubs more than that.

Wow. Not. Moving. At. All.

And BTW, still 127 left.

I was told the Cannon text would come when they open. I also haven't gotten the Stowe link, but I don't remember them saying when that would be sent.

Anyone get the text from Cannon yet?

 

[billski]

Tenney (NH) plans to have a free ski day once they open. Smart move. No date set, they're just pedal to the metal to get things operational.
