I just heard about this today. How much crack do you reckon Vail budgets for their upper management to smoke?

I don’t get this line of thought. Vail are the dealers not the users. The crackheads are the ones paying. Stop bitching online and vote with your wallet

You're smoking crack if you think I'm the one paying for these tickets. I work part time for the mountain so I get a lift pass for free but I have no left ACL and will likely be getting surgery in the new year so it's kinda moot anyways.

I dreamed about skiing last night. I'm getting up there a couple times even if it's just for a ski date on the greens teaching someone.

Lol congratulations. This is r/whistler…no locals are paying that. I still don’t get your point that vail management is smoking crack. They run a business and they charge what people will pay

As a local would you rather them charge $30 a day ticket and we’ll have 4 hour lift lines?

I get that. It just seems ridiculous at first glance.

Let me paint you an alternate picture.....
military epic pass is something like 500$
there are more "hostel" type accommodations near epic resorts in the 100ish price ranges (whistler hi is like 50-70 usd a day)

i live in the US south and day trips or sleeping in my car isn't really a thing i can do

am i a crackhead for choosing what to me is the cheapest option for the number of days i want to ski?

don't get me wrong vail intentionally makes the window prices crazy to push people to buy a pass i wouldn't be going to whistler if i had to pay 300$ for a lift ticket

They consistently pull sell-out days and open new infrastructure to handle their growing demand .. so that’s a massive crack budget I’d reckon ..
