Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 11, 2019 Author Report Posted March 11, 2019 Considering just getting 2 Peak passes and for the second child using a combination of the kids ski free with adult for JF and kids ski 50% off with adult for Hunter and Snow coupons that come with the kids seasonal ski rentals (and when those 6 run out, use the 25% off buddy rate) Just need to verify if they will honor the coupons when the adult is a pass holder, not a daily ticket buyer. 1 Quote

Would it piss one of the kids off to not be a passholder? Would this require going to ticket office prior to skiing each time. Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 11, 2019 Author Report Posted March 11, 2019 It would mean going to the window each time. Might upset the non pass holder kid somewhat, but no rational reason for it to, as I would let then each ski the same amount. Might not be worth it - probably would not save me that much Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 I would be fucking pissed of if I was the twin who didn’t get the season pass and had to use other twins or dads buddy pass like a Jerry. 1 Quote

They can just rotate who gets it. They look the same. Shouldn't matter. Quote

I think 15 minutes is an exaggeration but figure its 5 minutes. Let’s say 15 times a year. That’s 75 minutes to save $200 or something...not to shabby. I’d rather have $200 vaporize from my bank account than stand in a ticket line 15 times for 5 minutes. 1 Quote

Doesn’t sound like they got their dads tall genetics. Pretty rare. But sometimes one does a "girls day out" with grandma and the other does a "daddy daughter day" with me - usually either skiing or great adventure Quote

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. 3 hours ago, eaf said: 5 mins per trip are irrelevant. He already made a bigger decision of spending hours more in the car. Time = money.

The Peak Pass people don't give a flying funk about the complaints, so dont see them caving and offering a cheaper PA pass unless there's a significant drop off in business next season. I feel for the people in the Harrisburg area because Peak has a monopoly on all local resorts down there. There's also an article on PennLive today about it. Edited March 13, 2019 by saltyant Quote

JFskiDan Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 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.

trackbiker Posted March 13, 2019 Report Posted March 13, 2019 Peak doesn't make the people at their midwest mountains buy the "Peak" pass that includes New England. If they were decent they would offer an option for just a Whitetail, Roundtop, and Liberty pass then offer the option for the New England mountains. The midwest mountains have a lot of cheaper options as well. https://www.paolipeaks.com/season-passes 1 Quote
