Nice podcast about Alterra and the Ikon Pass.  Alterra recently bought 11 ski resorts.  Between the epicpass and Ikon Pass there are 58 North American resorts in total.  The early season pass revenue is so good for these large ski resort conglomerates.  There’s a lot more mid mountain beers to sell than slopeside real estate.  Cultivating future customers while they travel across the country seems like a win win. On YouTube and Teton gravity there are accounts of people both young and old going on extended ski trips out west hitting multiple Ikon resorts along the way..the pictures and videos they share at the water cooler and online is seriously good marketing.

How was your bike ride yesterday?

Take it to the bike forum! It was ok, feels great getting out again. Hope to be in better shape in a month.

You should try to go to killington when Enjorales and NMSki go.  Would be a blast. 

Thanks for the invitation, although I'm done skiing til the end of 2019.

Wow Salty. There's plenty of good skiing to be had, especially if you drive a few hours north. Doesn't even need to be Vermont. The Catskills are good right now. Mid March is no time to call it a season. There will be plenty of time to bike.

Awesome. It was definitely a good day to get out. Maybe we'll be able to meet up for a ride this summer.
