Snowboarding Steamboat IKON Pass FAIL - (Season 6, Day 49)

Sometimes you get blinded by the snow count and you forget to check important dates like blackout skiing dates. Thankfully our life is set up to were if anything bad happens with skiing or snowboarding we always have a backup plan LOL

I own Anon WM1 goggles ($200+) which are magnetic but I bought a pair to support his channel and so my son can have a magnetic pair. They have a wider range of sight on the sides and the lens works well when it’s bright and then becomes cloudy. No need to switch to a super light lens until a storm rolls in and it gets dark. Big for a smaller woman’s face but they are still sick!! Good quality for $90

[@Readit4Life_2Chron7_14]

Ohhh. Yeah, that's right,.... I bought the full IKON pass to avoid the blackout dates.... Well, my daughter told me that in Colorado a lot of the resorts have changed their pricing program to one of Supply & Demand so that the price for a full day lift ticket will fluctuate just like airline tickets on SWA. That's crazy!! Who the heck wants to pay $260/day for a ticket at any time. Crazy! Ruining skiing & snowboarding for everyone.

[@stevenmcdabbin7652]

Dude literally the exact SAME situation happened to me... I drove down from silverthorne and it was a blackout day. Waited an hour in line too. I asked the day pass price and went home lol

[@michaellurie9138]

Epic gives you 50% off day tickets on blackout days. Also if you own a lesser pass like northeast value, they will give you 50% off on day tickets at any Epic owned resort. Too bad they are neglecting wildcat this season.

Im about to be in Steamboat Feb 22nd - Mar 1st. Whats the claim on this mountain? It'll be my first time at this resort. Is it a resort with majority stuck up skiers that hate snowboarders and treat them like second class citizens or nah? i find it crazy that there is still some resorts that majority of people will judge you and treat you differently based on what you ride. Hoping thats not the case with this resort especially with how much money i spent on my ikon pass. i couldnt believe the resort was claiming $250+ a day absolute bonkers this resort must be "top notch" lmaooo.

I was at the Boat for a week right before the pandemic hit. Granted I'm a skier, but I thought the place was fairly laid back. Didn't see any grief between skiers/boarders.

[@pakmandan]

Seems like there was a period in the mid last decade which pricing became better to give access to more folks on the mountain. I guess these mountain admins and greedy folk now want to shut out the lower class and diversity on the mountains, and hold it for rich or privileged people. Crap is so expensive now and simple people And lower class folk barely have access to the slopes. Keep shredding and spreading positivity and love for the mountains bro.

I live in Chicago and was trying to plan a ski trip to Colorado this season.

[@404racing5]

I went to copper earlier this season, and I think I paid about $500 for a day pas for me and my wife and a room for 1 night in one of the condos. I got a bundle on their site so they discounted the lift tickets a bit. Current prices are like $99 for a Thursday, $189 for a Saturday, $179 for a Sunday

[@mintyfresh2424]
