The Indy Pass

[MarzNC]

I was wondering if, when you said "archives" if you meant NYSB archives, that's why I asked for the link.

I'm curious if you use Google to search the old (or new) forum. I do.

Yes, I use Google to search ski forums. The Search built into Xenforo is silly. Only use it when I know a couple good keywords for a thread title, preferably along with the OP's username.

For that search, I didn't specify any particular website to search. Just scanned the results until I saw something worth checking out.

25/26 Indy Passes back on sale after adding 43 new resorts across 10 states and 14 countries

GRANBY, COLORADO – Indy Pass announced today that 43 new resorts have signed on for the 2025/2026 season. These new resorts will be joined by 228 returning from last year, forming an unprecedented 271-resort coalition.

Well I am excited by Burke. Tenney might be worth a visit and I hear some of the Quebec hills are good.

That’s all pretty exciting. Looks like Greek is the closest learn-to-turn for NYC?

Here's the list of additions announced today sorted by region.

The addition I like the best is Tenney in NH. For people who live in the Boston area, it's an easy day trip. Far more interesting terrain than Wachusett for people who don't mind slow fixed-grip lifts. No lift line on a powder day.

Also good to see that Burke joined, although not a surprise given that the new owners include the owner of Berkshire East and Catamount. That means could get up to 4 days covered after driving to northern VT and staying somewhere near Burke and Jay.

Shawnee is pretty close to NYC. They expect other resorts to join in. I wonder about Catamount and Burke.

The Learn To Turn 3-day pass will be sold all season. Since people who have Indy will be able to offer friends a $40 discount coupon, could mean $149 for 3 days with lift ticket, rental gear, and a lesson. That's a real deal!

"New Learn-to-Turn Pass Launches with 33 Resorts

The new Learn-to-Turn skier development program by Indy Pass also goes on sale today for just $189 for all ages. Indy Pass holders will receive referral codes suitable for $40 off up to Learn-to-Turn passes. The Learn-to-Turn Pass will give beginning skiers and snowboarders three lift tickets, lessons, and rentals at a growing number of participating Indy Resorts.

"Jay Peak has been an Indy partner for years, and we are excited to participate in the Learn to Turn Pass. While Jay Peak is known for the most snow in the East and challenging terrain, we teach hundreds of beginners each year as well, and many of them are referred to us by their Indy Pass friends who take the opportunity to come for the weekend,” said Steve Wright, Jay Peak GM.

33 resorts have signed on, and more are expected as the season approaches. Learn-to-Turn Passes will remain on sale throughout the season, providing newcomers with easy and affordable access to the slopes."
