I would like to get everyone's opinion about the trip plan for 2014-15 season because some best promotion has started last week. For next snow season, I am thinking about:
1. Taking a trip (5 ski days) to PSIA training in Vermont (e.g., Killington) in December.
2. Taking out people to join Vancouver Ski Gang's Alps Ski Trip (TBA).
3. Following our
Ski Trip Longer-Range Planning long term plan to ski those we have not visited yet. (Winter 2014-15's target is
Winter Park,
Steamboat, and Copper Mountain.)
It covers Steamboat, Winter Park, Blue Mountain, Tremblant, Stratton, and Snowshoe. Each resort gets 6 days of skiing. I have confirmed with Intrawest that the 6 days do not need to be in one ski trip, which means that we can ski Snowshoe locally for 2, 2, 2 - 3 separate weekend trips. We can then jump on a plane to ski Colorado, Vermont, and/or Canada for other trips. I also confirmed with Intrawest that their definition of family covers friends! Therefore, here is the deal:
If you buy the pass youself only, it is $549. If we get a group of 6 (one + 5 additional) to buy the pass together, it will be $424 per person. The promotion lasts for only 7 days, so you need to act quick if you are interested. Since I will be out on ski trip next week, I will need to get this done this weekend (by tomorrow afternoon).
Please let me know if you want to join my group puchase of the Intrawest Passport before tomorrow afternoon (03/09/2014).
