      Yeah, I looked into year passes when we moved out here this last summer....and Wow Vail is quite a bit more expensive than almost every other resort.

      Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

          :roll:

          I shopped around for discounts but not worth the hassle for the small discounts available....

          whenever I've skied in Colorado, I bought daily passes from Walmart or SevenEleven...

          hugely discounted with the days food rations or a bottle of wine...

          might be worth checking their sites...

                Just checked your link Mike: $170/day! Kinda bonkers pricing - and I've been dragging helmets etc round the US for the last 2 weeks. 😞

                      It's probably too late now, but I would have thought a company as big as Trimble could have organised some sort of corporate discount for ski passes as a perk for basecampers.

                              Packed all the stuff tonight. Will be at the Cascade Saturday afternoon. Hitting the slopes on Sunday. I imagine there is a bar we can meet up for those arriving early to maybe coordinate a few runs together on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

                                To everyone going to base camp, have a brilliant time, take photos and video to share with all us not going, and don't do anything I would do.

                                  I believe that Vail allows uphill traffic, bring your skins and save your cash for scotch. I'll be trying to get in a morning run before camp starts.

                                      I bet the SketchUp folks weren't hoping for road closures when they planned an event in Vail this late in the season.

                                        I made it as far as Fresno CO and had to pull off and find a place to stay.
                                        Hope the sailing is clear in the morning, Vail is not seeming like the smartest place to hold this right now, and I have to eat the cost of the room that I can't make it to. They told me no changes after 21days before.

                                        a sucky start.

                                          I finally made it! Took 3-4 hours for the 5:30 shuttle to make it...but we did!
                                          Saw Mayor Mike holding court at the bar when I arrived at my room and looked from the 2nd floor to see who all was in the bar that I recognized.
