As I am indecisive as to buying Caberfae with decent reciprocals ( $250) or Michigan white gold ($350) for a Michigan jaunt with Jaytrem again I finally put my name on Indy wait list just in case. ( would love to join my bro in NH in Jan and do Waterville, Cannon, and maybe the 2 monsters of Jay and Saddleback) my mind says yes and the body has hesitancy.
Who got the Indy already?
If not what pass have you bought or anticipate buying?

I ended up buying a Ski Maine Pass (
https://skimaine.com/ski-maine-mountain-pass/). The vouchers are 100% transferable, so between my fiance and I, we'll likely use every voucher, working out to less than $22 per day. We also are going to buy Titcomb season pass, which get you 50% off at many mountains in the state.

The ski_it’s have Indy again….but I’m in the same camp of my mind says yes and the body has hesitancy. Or is it the other way around? The other ski_it’s will probably make good use of it again…that is if one of them doesn’t hurt themselves rock climbing.

Congratulations Sam! Obviously she( in today’s world I assume she’s a born she or however the crazy furry world goes)
Ski_it glad to know I’m not the only one not quite a JimK or WoodyB or Joshua

I have Indy again for my second season on it
If you haven’t gotten on it, get on the waitlist. My understanding is they will open up the waitlist in the fall.

My first season on this pass ... Purchased it as an add on with my King Pine season pass.

I got Indy the day it went on sale. It's always had a good return on investment for me and I'm expecting this season to be the same.

This will be my second season on Indy; I purchased it in the spring. Hoping to make it back to Magic, Jay and Cannon this season and check out some new places as well.

This will be my third year on the Indy Pass. It's worked out great for me the last two years.
JMaul
Year 3 for me as well. Last year was not that great due to weather and schedules. If that repeats itself this year, I may drop it.

Well I ski often with the two gentlemen immediately above, and it's worked out pretty well. I have family pulling me outside of the indy places on any given weekend, but I still think it's been a good value for me. I like the variety.

Year 3 with Indy for me as well. Could be my last depending how this season goes, and what Indy does. Communication has dropped off the charts since the sale.

Jmaul you a grampa too?
Track can’t believe it will be 10 years on NYDay we skied Camelback and FIFTEEN since the first SJ south ski day at CBack in December, wow time flies.

Easy there, big Fella. Kids are 22 and 19. Let's give it some more time.
Maybe if you decide on the Indy, we can put together a day on one of the hills.

What’s crazy is my wife and I golf together 90% of my rounds(65 ytd) and have spent $3k and I have trouble laying out $300~ for one of these passes.
Too bad the skiing out here isn’t what the golf is
Jaytrem buys a Michigan white gold pass, lives in NJ and loves seeking out all the molehills.
Well without him and Conrad as my inspiration I would have never skied Lutsen.
So what are my chances of having a Indy available?
ciscokid
Well I got a “permission “ code
Indy gave me permission to buy
Now the question is do I buy?

Decisions, decisions Cisco.
I bought Indy passes for 2020-21 and then for 2022-23 in order to do specific trips I’d anticipated.
With the areas north of the Mason-Dixon Line pretty much off limits in 2020-21, I shifted my PA and VT/NH plans southward, taking advantage of the nearby Indy areas (Canaan, Massanutten, Bryce) and going on an epic (but not Epic) road trip to ski 7 areas further southeast in WV, TN, and NC. I skipped Indy in 2021-22 because I had other options. Last season - i.e., 2022-23 - I planned an Indy-fueled road trip to the NEast and ended up skiing 9 times in 9 days.
But this coming season there’s no Indy pass for me. My skiing-professor friends and I all bought Timberline WV season passes again, and we bought Epic day tickets 🎟️ for our trip to VT.
Plus (drum roll) 🥁 I have only a couple of months left as a sexagenarian. Turning 70 near the beginning of ski season means free tickets at Massanutten, Bryce (weekdays), and Canaan Valley. I may be slowing down and being more careful, but I’m not counting myself out of the game yet.
Enjoy the season(s) 🍁 ⛄️

Jmail, Cisco, trackbiker, rickbolger, and all,
Regardless of where I do and don’t have passes, count me in for a get-together on the snow if schedules work out. Will happily pay a higher rate if it means having the pleasure of skiing together. ⛷️
‘Been missing those times.
Cheers,
Woody

Woody I didn’t even know I was a sexagenarian!
