Lift Ticket Prices for 14-15

School's out ...

And I'm obviously not going to show up there figuring it must be somewhere close to the city.

You know this how?

Thanks for posting what I don't have the patience to.  I like Stowe.  A lot.  Make it a long weekend, do lift served, BC and bring along your nordic for some great kick and glide.  Then go out to eat (Thai, English Pub, American Bistro, French - you name it) followed by a pretty fun and rowdy nightlife and music.  Stowe is a lot of fun.  Every weekend?  Of course not but every once and a while it's great.

I don't need to ski stowe to know it's outrageous to charge over 100 bucks for a lift ticket.

Stowe's lift ticket isn't $108 or $103.  It's $89, exactly the same as Whiteface.  The $103 ($108 if you have to buy the RFID) is the rate for walk-ups to the ticket window.  But you can buy online - including day of - for $89.  Anyone who buys at the window is a chump, there's simply no reason to do it.

LOTS of people pay the walk up rate. They sell tickets at the window for a reason. And 89 is still a complete rip off.

And the back pedalling begins

Right on!!

Need me some Matterhorn ---- that place totally rocks, and rocks it hard baby

Where'd ya' go?

Nah.  His meeting with his probation officer ended early and the soup kitchen hasn't opened yet.

I like Stowe but only go when we get the cabin on top to stay.  Never stayed anywhere else.  It is a blast when the last time we had the hut up there, it was a full moon and we got in hot laps from the very top at 3-4am.  Wake up with the chairs starting, get the first pick on groomers and back on the lifts before they even open.  Chair folk didn't even mind knowing we were staying up at the hut.  We would get half a dozen runs or more before 10am and then have breakfast in the lodge up top.  Sweet.  I will say Stowe has some of the best grooming I have ever skied.

As for price, yeah, it is way over priced at the window, but who doesn't purchase early or online for discounts?  Speaking of which, I need to head over now to the Killington web page and purchase my unlimited day passes for $61, getting seven with the eighth free.  That's $53.33 per day.

I don't bother with resort lodging.  As is often stated, many are run down and or over priced.  So many deals to be had in the local area.  ATF for Killington is the Vermont Inn, just down 4.  If I go real cheap - The Butternut Inn.

I asked this earlier but it was covered up by flaming.  Is Stowe an upscale, service oriented resort like Deer Valley, or do they just price high to keep crowds down?

I asked this question this morning.  I still did not get an answer, I got SEVEN PAGES OF NON STOP FLAMING instead.  Mountain Creek doesn't need any natural snow to get me on the slopes, but I need some to calm everyone down on this site and get the flaming to STOP.

  Stowe sounds really cool and I will have to try it some day.  Do they groom a lot when it doesn't snow?   maybe I will try it for one of my annual new mountains.  

make sure it is before you move out and end up like powinass.and add the map to the folder

I call you those names because I think it's funny to pick on mental defectives like you.  Not because I "care" about what you're ranting about.  I've been criticized greatly in the past, perhaps rightfully so, for kicking guys like you around.  Call it a weakness.

So you admit you're a troll and a bully. Nice.
Goodbye.

What is your home mountain again?

Many great skiers were broke ski bums who slept in their van. Many of the nonathletic rich gapers who pay 100 bucks plus at stowe and who post to online message boards suck! That's reality.
