BRB terrain parks are instantly 100x better. I want a big ski resort company to buy blue. The grooming will be better, they'll finally build the hotel that they need and we'll likely have access to other resorts with our season pass. I also imagine pay parking will take place at least the close in spots but that will happen everywhere eventually. Quote

Were there some rumors or indicators that it might be on sale? There've been talk for years of ski resort companies buying blue. If you look around most local ski resorts have been bought in the last several years. JF/BB, montage, Camelback, mountain creek, hunter and Bear Creek. Quote

Well, then I'd rather see Blue join the Peak pass than be bought by an "undentified buyer" like CB. Oh, wait, it was identified. Some REIT. Edited February 22, 2018 by eaf Quote
theprogram4 Posted February 22, 2018 Report Posted February 22, 2018 I have no complaints about blue at the moment, but seeing all the negativity and complains in those screen shots got me excited and I kind of want to go bitch with the others Quote

Shadows Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 Not sure what difference they made to jfbb. Id be ok if intrawest bought blue 1 Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 Don't care at all if ski areas get bought or sold except to the extent it leads to a multi mountain pass or increases prices due to less competition and/or price fixing. Quote

poconoceancity Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 I’d love to see peak buy blue also. Quote
momskeeztoo Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 The reason Boulder is almost 100% Park is because it's pretty useless for anything else. 3 Quote
toast21602 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 Depending on who bought Blue, I'd be okay with it. If it was an east coast company I could care less, but if it was national, that would be nice. I don't currently see that in the near future, though. Quote
RootDKJ Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 I miss the days when your Blue pass got you a good discount at Stowe. It I think it was 50% off midweek, 25% weekends? That can’t be right. Quote

If vail buys Blue imagine all the resorts Blue passholders could access. Edited February 23, 2018 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote
Schif Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 So i noticed that with the season pass you get free snow tubing. How exactly does that work? Is it something that I could give someone my pass to use for the day and they could tube as me? Quote

No you can't do that...snow tubing is just for you..you use your season pass for tubing, they don't issue you a seperate ticket. What you are discussing is known as theft of services and if you weren't such a nice guy I'd give you a strike two. 2 Quote
Shadows Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 i always thought that was kind of weird. whats the point of tubing by myself? give me free tubing and a tubing buddy pass. Quote

rgrwilco Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 Im leaving the peak pass to come to blue. I hope they don't buy blue. Peak treats every mountain thats not mount snow kinda crappy. 2 Quote
Johnny Law Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 Leave Blue as it is, the benefits of say a Vail are outweighed by the negatives. 2 Quote
