Tabatha Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Check-in Saturday Feb 23 or Sunday Feb 24. Check-out Friday March 1. I think most people plan on arriving on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikel45 Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 (edited) Did some research on how we all can save some cash regarding (regular rate $45) ticket price: - Sunday & Monday (two-day lift ticket) $28.50 each day, see Liftopia for details; - Owl's Head Tuesday & Wednesday $20 special each day; - Thursday & Friday (two-day lift ticket) $21.50 each day, see Liftopia for details; - Saturday (one-day lift ticket) $30.92, see Liftopia for details. Alternative options: - Show CAA-Quebec card $33 just Thursday and $39 from Friday to Monday; - Show AIR MILES card $33 just Monday and $39 from Thursday to Sunday; - Show Ride & Ski card and pay $29; - For season pass holders at other resorts, check with Owl's Head for possible season pass rebates.

powdahbonz Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 It would be great if we could plan out days we want to do jay peak so we could use liftopia as well. In the meantime, craigslist vermont usually has a run on jay vouchers-I plan on at least one day at jay if not two-hoping to get snowbound as well-boards are at the Loaf getting tuned and first turns coming this weekend. Giddy I am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian M Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Yup, tickets on Liftopia can be great deals... still I'm inclined to not plan as much as possible when it comes to 'here or there', especially when they're close together. Who's got the best snow today? Let's go there! Sorry - I know that's not very helpful :P Great new that you get to ride soon Bonser! I had my first outings this weekend, and they were bipolar... read and have a laugh :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 How much is a ticket at Jay? What would the savings be through Liftopia and when are there specials and / or days were we feel it will be less crowded? And I buy Ian a lift ticket if he promise to try Goofy again in public with LOTS of carvers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie00 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Tuesday and Weds are cheap days at Owls head.. tickets were 15$ last seasons so it should stay the same this season. http://www.owlshead.com/en/promotions/ski/tuesdays-wednesdays.html Best thing would be is to get a group rate, just a pain to collect everyone indivitually but we can save quite a bit of money. I run a ski club at my school were I teach and groupe rate are often 2/3 off the regular price tickets. We pay 17$ for a m ountain the is 45$ and so on. I should get the prices for both mountain later this afternoon and we will go from there to see what is more beneficial.

Ian M Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 ^ It would be wonderful if you'd look into group rates, Ernie. At this point we have 15 people confirmed, so hopefully that would meet the threshold. Let us know about the logistics? (When and how the tickets would have to be paid for, and whether they must be consecutive days, etc.) Cheers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie00 Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I`ll look into it and get back to everyone later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLN Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 I'd be happy to have freezing rain now. But we got -45 to -49C (that's -49F to -56F) for tomorrow's morning. http://www.yk.kz/dir/weather/weathyk Do you think it's a good idea to drive carving tomorrow?

Ian M Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 "M-Control to Sno-Command: Blade is down, Code-3 Amber is Bright, you are at 'Go' for throttle up." That sounds so exciting! We're still getting the 'wetter' precipitation. I don't suppose it would be practical to push some of that snow over to here?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 If I were Queen of the World, precipitation between Thanks-Giving and Easter would have to be snow ... not what ever is falling outside. Whatever that is - it should be illegal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilux Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) Owl's Head and Jay are looking good given the conditions elsewhere...Orford not so much but we learned that the hard way years back. If conditions are crap at Orford, chances are Owl's Head is better if not spectacular. http://www.owlshead.com/en/home-winter/ http://www.jaypeakresort.com/skiing-riding/the-mountain/conditions-weather Edited December 27, 2012 by Hilux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
