I always like to think "what would Vail do in this situation?" And i think the Epic pass would be a $$$ upgrade for the Blue only passholder.

Thats seals it for me. I'm gonna hold out for the Epic pass.

Parking lot shenanigans begin this weekend.

He is asking the same question about you.

Holy crap. Thats a shitload of food. Stop shopping.

The direct to lift happened a few years before the Peak Pass. It was direct to lift like the last 2 years i was there. I think they did the Peak pass thing when they bought hunter. i remember we had discounts to Mt Snow on our pass before that.

Honestly, if i was still at Frost, i would probably be a little huffy that i couldnt get just a JFBB pass. The other Peak East Coast Mts dont really do much for me. My first preference for making a trip would be out west. I wouldnt go to Mount Snow thinking it would compare to JH, Snowbird, etc. Wait till those people see what Vail does to the price of passes. Seriously though, those people are using skitoolive math. Lets assume Liberty, roundtop, whitetail draws most of their population from Harrisburg. Its probably close to 2 hrs to drive to Blue. Thats a lot of gas and time spent. It would probably end up costing the average Harrsburgian more to ski Blue than putting up with the Peak Pass. Is Blue better? Maybe in some aspects, but the thinking the Blue pass will be cheaper for them hasnt been thought out so good. Obviously the more East of Hburg you are, the more this may make sense.

Whats a petition going to do? It seems as though Peak responded with "these are the pass prices, if it is beyond what you are willing to pay, maybe these mountains arent for you." i do think its silly for those mountains especially to be lumped into the whole pass peak, but i'm not losing much sleep over it.

Wrong. The game of washers. http://www.originalwashers.com/rules.shtml

i will take care of the sausage, peppers and onions. i will slice up the peppers and onions to be cooked on the flat top.

And standing in line at the ticket window to get one ticket when the other 2 have direct access, so he can save $100

Should we start discussing menu items and who is bringing what? I know Enjo has a new flat top that i for one am very excited about seeing some breakfast items on.

unlikely. he just will never understand. keep in mind, this is the guy who thinks the "glades" at Blue are "good"

You should hold off buying your peak pass in case Vail buys Blue.

You really dont get it. But thats ok, some people never will. Enjoy Peak.

So your esparagus was deep fried?

Esparagus is a vegtable. Did you know that?

I always like to ask myself “what would vail do in this situation?” Quickest season of the year is ski season. Just goes to fast.

Smoked pulled pork.

Make no bones about it, i am notorious at work for being able to "make something work" thats broke, with a clothes hanger, some duct tape, and a hubcap, but it doesnt mean i fixed it or refurbished it.

I cant take credit for this idea, since i heard it last year from someone else. But the early season dilemma of making snow top to bottom ran through my mind as well. IMO, refurbished means older machine made to run like new. I cant for the life of me figure out why they cant make those lifts operate consistently.

Then you might as well make main street go to the bottom of whatever that teaching hill is, and put up another super duper high capacity lift. 3 high speeds to the top. But as Indiggio pointed out, getting lots of people to the top fast, isnt necessarily a good thing.

just cause you are sidelined from riding doesnt mean you skip the end of season party. You wont be the first person to attend with hardware to keep body parts together.

Provided all of the Peak resorts are direct access, which i would assume they are now for passholders, yeah, this would have to be a huge savings to be fucking around looking online for stupid 10 fucking percent off coupons, and spending any amount of time in a fucking ticket window line at 10 am trying to get a fucking pass for 1 person out of 3, when 2 people already have a direct fucking pass that doesnt require going to a fucking window. What a fucking waste of fucking time. Time = money. This is a concept lost on the OP.
