I’m not sure a Friday pass is all that attractive. They should bring back the “$25 for the first 50 skiers“ specials- even if it has to go up a little. $35 or $45 maybe?

Yeah, especially if they start renting the area out on Fridays like they did this season.

Did they ever rent it out on a Friday?

It seemed as though they just….ah….happened (?) to have a Friday rental the day before they went to Sat/Sun only.

I watched people on the web cams that Friday. So, they did run lifts on a Friday that wasn’t available to pass holders.

799 for a pass when you only have Saturday and Sunday to ski seems high.
