SKi Vermont 4-passes just went on sale. $189 for 4 mid week passes this year. They do offer a refund or carry over to next year if Mountains have COVID issues or you get sick.

The SKI Vermont 4-pass didnt sell out first day for the first time I can recall, which I find non-shocking. Not really all THAT cheap, and you cant even use it on weekends = I passed (no pun intended).

Not just that, but the uncertainty of even being able to ski in Vermont this year.

If Vermont does loosen up midseason, then those Jay, Bolton, and Magic days will feel like a bonus.

Yeah, this isnt the right thread for this.

That said, there isnt a correct thread here for trying to sell 20 year old skis, unless it's for ski bench construction materials.

Someplace better then a bench would be a more propper use Especially if someone was trying to ski on the cheap and only one is from 2008. Wish I could say more but I Board. Ski bag is as good as could be for a trip someone wants to take to get away from crappy COVID life to a better snowy COVID life.

Those prices arent "cheap", they're all way too expensive & wont sell.

And I dont think Salomon was making Scream series skis with stabilizer bars as late as 2008, but perhaps you're right. I thought those were more like a 1997 - 2003'ish invention.

No deals this winter as far as I can see. most NH mountains that normally offer great in state deals are off. Cannon, no Wed in state deal, no two-fers. Bretton Woods, no early season cheap tix and from what I can see, no Sunday local half days. Gunstock, you can’t get the flex pass without a season holder buying for you (BFF). Loon never has deals and Attitas/ Wildcat aren’t showing any deals on their websites. I have the Ikon and New England Bronze but am considering rolling the Ikon to next season. No trip to Tremblant this year. 😖
