This thread is an update of last one about Lake Tahoe Ski Trip
 
We have a schedule change, and this is the final.  We are going to take advantage of the Martin Luther King long weekend for this trip, so you can save one day vacation.
 
Where - Lake Tahoe (The most beautiful ski destination): Heavenly (1-2 day), Squaw Valley (1 day), Kirkwood (1 day), Northstar (1-2 day)
When - 01/19/2013 ~ 02/25/2013 (5 ski days 01/20-24, you can stay and ski more days if you want)
Lodging - Some casino hotel (TBD)

How to register - Let's finalize this ASAP.  Please reply to let us know that you are interested in joining the trip.

Sidenote: Lake Tahoe will have a very good season this winter.  The lastest snow report (this afternoon) from our old friend Taichi master Mr.s Shen from South Lake Tahoe:

"Heavenly has received 24" of snow from past 7 days, so, it is powder skiing all around now, and more to come (another bigger one has forecasted next Tuesday)."

Proposed ski schedule: The first 3 days might have no choice due to ski shuttle to Northstar and Kirkwood but Squaw's ski bus only operate Fri-Sun.  http://www.tahoeskishuttle.com/Shuttle_Schedule.pdf

I found this mountain pass which only cost $372 but cover ALTA, ASPEN/SNOMASS, JACKSON HOLE, SQUAW, and Alpine Meadows http://www.themountaincollective.com/ I didn't read it carefully but it is on my next season plan. All of these top resorts are not under Vail's EPIC pass. 

My question is how people to use this mountain pass? one is in UT, one in CO, another in WY, and last one north lake tahoe? We could rent a private jet.  

Sat 1/19 - travel 
Sun 1/20 - Heavenly (local)
Mon 1/21 - Kirkwood (ski bus every Mon & Wed)
Tue  1/22 - Northstar (ski bus every Tue & Thur)
Wed 1/23 - Squaw Valley ski bus Fri-Sun)
Thu  1/24 - Heavenly (local)
Fri  1/25 - travel

Northstar and Squaw Valley are in north lake tahoe and the ski shuttle to Northstar cost about $15 round trip. I don't know what's the ski shuttle to Squaw Valley. I need to get some BOGO for Squal Valley because EIPC pass does not include Squaw Valley. I heard Squaw Valley is very good...
