not that i ever would do this ever… but has anyone (in theory of course) used someone else’s epic pass or know of someone who did for the day and gotten away with it? considering the whole face mask and goggles thing i’m not super worried about it. also curious about possible punishments if caught? thanks
Using someone else’s epic pass?

I know people who have. Harder at Vail Resorts since they scan individually and look. Basically be covered up and make sure you’re within similar-ish size to the pass holder and don’t look too different if you get stopped. Not that I recommend this though.
PS many big resorts offer $100+ To lifties for catching people doing this. The resorts might threaten to prosecute (or say they can) but realistically the pass holder and you will just be banned for a year or more.

So first you’re asking to use someone’s blister account. Now you’re asking about scamming someone else pass. But ya you’re not going to do this or anything. Bro stop being so cheap.

$300 day tickets are the scam. He should just buy an epic next year yes. Sneak in a few laps this year or not is what this threads about.
Not sure if you are aware but they stopped selling Epic passes over a month ago fyi.

Very aware. I bought mine in time. If you waited and didn’t that’s your problem. Either pay for a day pass or find someone with an epic pass and get a buddy pass or ski with a friend pass. Pretty simple.
he supposedly already has an epic pass so he should already know he has buddy passes and ski with friend passes. But he’s asking about using someone else’s pass.

i was lowk gonna complain on here about why tf lifties care about the passes but that explains it.
OP don't do it, my friend let his friend use his pass once and got the cops called on him (take that with a grain of salt). don't mess with vail though it's not worth it.

I have a keystone pass and my buddy and I are going to vail for an event. He has full epic and sent me a SWAF. Swaf brought a vail ticket from $270 to $260

if your going during peak times, they will have staff up (people looking at the monitor) and lifties will get extra $ for pulling it.
I actually see more people get pulled to the side who are wearing face masks, and asked to pull them down. Maybe consider trying to blend in and be confident.
If they get it pulled, don't have them incriminate someone else, they should just say they found it in the lot and take the blame. This gives the owner a better chance of getting it back by saying they "lost it".
Vail is the devil and does have the lawyers to try and push charges.

I did this once with [tag=283506]@SchizoSkier[/tag] and still got interrogated. Some places don't play any games, anything for that bonus the resorts hand out for catching people

Rob Katz couldn't afford his 4th home. I heard one of the managers considered buying a used car to stay on their budget.
You think using your friend pass doesn't have consequences? It does!!!!!

i ski at a secret resort in summit county... my 45 minute commute is faster than a local making it to breck from in town...
you all wait in these lines at breck, key, copper... and i just cant even fathom it! today , i showed up at like 2 in the afternoon, parked my cadi in VIP, walked by the mogul comp ceremony with the entire audience staring at me...
i cant believe they even waste time to set up ropes for liftlines, cause there is no line.
i stoked out two texans with real freestyle skiing and gave them a free two run lesson, including hitting their first box... that made their week vacation to colorado!
then i got my dog Ace out, setup the touring skis, and used uphill access to really enjoy the mountain privately!
you all really Pay money ? to wait in line? to ski crowded runs?
...and they call me crazy...
