You misinterpret, I know social distancing killed this year, and I’m not mad about the lines, I’m a mon-fri skier I’ve hardly spent an hour in line over the whole year, I’ve actually been making the argument your making for years, but I’m starting to see the negative impacts of ikon and the like, and how it could improve to be better.
My double, triple price idea is only an instant and temporary idea to support the other ideas of terrain, lift expansion etc to reduce crowding, and that should only be for their all access pass, they could still offer other less expensive versions, but if it has an unlimited access resort, it should be as much as that resorts pass and then some. ultimately I think a reservation or modified reservation system and limited days would be the biggest crowd deterrent.
Again about the price hike, I don’t wanna take anything away from the less fortunate, but I don’t have a better idea, and it’s still a good deal @ 3 or 4x the price, I figure I paid around $6 average per day to ski this year thanks to ikon, if that went to $24 big whoop, now if your only skiing 10 days well....finally, only 5 years ago I could barely afford a few tickets a year, and in 2 more I’ll be lucky to afford an ikon with sending kids to college, but I’d still advocate to see the full pass at $2k plus, and understand, I know I may be dead wrong, but I just want ikon , the resorts, and us the skiers to all get what we want and need to continue our symbiotic relationship, we seems on each other.
Also never said it was my land and that others don’t have a right, and I didn’t say they should raise ticket prices for access, but a multi resort pass, yah that should be able to do more for its resorts than crowd them, call me pretentious all you want, your inaccurate and obviously cannot follow along with and correctly interpret what’s said, you sound childish, greedy, uneducated, spoiled, petty and your tangent should be headline for a why to wear helmets as- wth happened to that thread anyway, I log in got 3 alerts and the threads gone, and I thought it was going so well, I mean. I was having fun
