Montage no longer on Indy pass

[Icecoast]

Bummer.

[mbike-ski]

yea but truth is I think I only made it there once with @JFskiDan in 3 Indy pass seasons...

[JFskiDan]

i wonder if there is something more going on there.  like is there a sale in the works, and the indy thing could complicate things?  i know that sounds weird but, why drop off all of a sudden?

i feel like every resort i went to on the Indy Pass was very "into" being on the Indy Pass.

Speaking of sales...what's going on with Elk?

It sounds like Montage was holding up negotiations on their contract for the 25/26 season. No idea what Montage was asking for that caused them to leave.

That's bummer. Montage was good option on weekends to avoid the crowds. I'll probably head there a few times on the $40 Monday to Wednesday deal.

Maybe now Indy can get Elk to sign up.

i still need to know what that was all about though.  like more so than who the new owner of Elk is.

It just scraping from the social media and forum posts anyway. Heck its probably using PASR as its source lol

[rummy]

All is quiet from the long term Elk pass holders front. Oktoberfest is this weekend if I hear any up to date rumors, I'll post an update on the Elk thread...

Went to Montage today to use my IndyPass for independent ski areas. 

A very nice day. Mostly cloudy so the sun couldn't soften things up but the lower double black diamonds were all very nice. I liked that one called Whitesnake or Ride the White Horse or whatever its called. Those double black diamonds were great though. What's that steep one called? Anyway its pretty steep. 

Then I rode the famous Long Haul lift to the top of the mountain. I didn't mind the long ride because I was having fun. 

If anything the blues and some of the easier expert trails are in worse shape with some ice coming through. That might just be from the higher traffic I guess. Kept it interesting. Speaking of traffic, practically no lift lines. Phoebe Snow maybe you wait a couple minutes.
