    Yep - just noticed that was the senior price, and I don't qualify

                      So, what should we be riding on Saturday - or what will everyone else be riding? Since there will be a refresh of snow late in the week, will we be doing all off-piste?

                        We have two Epic passes as well. We can talk about at the meet and greet... But don't buy your ticket ahead.

                              We had a nice little refresher overnight. It's still coming down lightly but tapering off. They'll probably be a couple more inches before it stops snowing completely. The forecast is to warm back up into the 40's and be sunny during the fest.
