At first, I thought it was BS that you had to buy a lift ticket every day.For everyone worried about the lift ticket pricing, here is some info. The regular cost is $25.00 for riding from 10:00 to 5:00 PM. For all the days from Thursday through Sunday the lift is open from 8:00 to 5:00, so it is a couple hours longer ride time, and it is $15.00. Aside from your scheduled practice times, that's a lot of available riding time. Yes, paying on top of entry fees sucks, but we are trying to stay open as long as possible to make it worth your while. We appreciate everyone's support, and understand the issues in different races (such as ticket prices), we are racers ourselves. That's one reason we are trying so hard to make new, interesting courses, and give everyone the best experience we can.
But then I saw the price and I knew this has to be discounted, which it is.
Yes, it would be great if the entry fee was $5, 1st prize is $100,000, and each chairlift had a frozen yogurt dispenser. But as long as the resort is not gouging the riders, it is hard to complain.
