What have you done this year? What are you thinking you will do?

I'm waiting on the extended deadline (9/2) for Gore and assuming I'll probably buy it. With Fiber optic going in on my road in the Adk, I'm hoping I can work from up there and maybe ski some weekdays.

Plattekill, I'm hoping to do what I always do, get it on opening day.
 
I bought my Gore pass early this year, before I thought much about the virus. I was planning a lot of travel in March, and I didn't want to miss the early deadline. I get a senior pass but if it were a full price pass I would think about taking the credit on December 1. IT's a fair bet that I wouldn't spend $500 at Gore before March when the 2022 passes go on sale.

I passed on Ikon this year. I use that mostly early and late season or with my son in Colorado, so the December 10 deadline for taking a credit didn't really work for me. If I can travel next winter I'll just suck it up and pay window rates.

Overall, I'm pessimistic about next season.

I'm thinking of buying a non holiday now so I can use it for biking then early season till surrender date, give it up with the intention of buying a senior pass on my birthday January 3. $599-$319=$280 -frequent skier card $109 =$171 = 4 weekdays.
Six days of skiing in December and an unlimited pass there after. Am I crazy? Hoping for good snow to add some XC and back country.
 
I bought the ICON pass. :cry: First time since 1999 I wont have a ORDA pass.

That's not crazy, but the over 70 rate with a frequent skier card is only $22, so the over/under on a senior pass is 16 or 17 days. That might take you all the way to March when the 2022 passes go on sale.

I bought the IKON base pass. If skiing is a no go, I can push the money into the next season.
 
Ideally, I would get myself an ORDA season pass, 1 Cloudsplitter Club and 2 Future Medalists but unsure.
As you know, in the spring due to COVID they reduced the seating capacity - which in theory I understood - but in execution was not good. I'm afraid if COVID hits hard again and they reduce seating after the Dec 1 deadline - it makes it hard to get the kids together.
 
The new forum calls for transparency, although most of the regulars already know me by sometimes snarky comments, so Shaman will only be out on the mountain;)

I'm all in on the usual for me, Full Ikon (instead of Base so that I can get unlimited at Sugarbush), K mid week, and Full ORDA. If the season is in the crapper, I'll decide which to move to 20-21. Hoping for the best(y)
