So we did the Max Pass this year, really liked it. No blackouts and it made a trip to CO work. Considering the Epic 4 Day with no blackouts Sunapee, Okemo and Stowe - 12 ski days for each of us. Located in Albany, NY, have access to ski club house in Waterbury Center. Not sure about another trip to CO but this pass would allow that again. Kids are now 13 & 15. Ikon Base has blackouts dates - Stratton, Killington & Sugarbush; Peak Pass slightly more no blackouts - Hunter & Mt Snow, maybe a trip into NH. These early commitment deadlines and fewer options make me cringe.

The Epic 4 day gives you a total 4 not 4 at each. you get 4 more at some mid west ski areas
