FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Alterra and FUUUUUCCKK VAIL
I guess A Basin skiers are going to eat that bag of dicks after all.
Fuck me.....I'm going to cry.
Old's Cool.

Also, the owners selling out to Vail/Alterra are spineless fucks.
This sucks. I don't want a fucking overpriced Ikon pass to only ski Abasin (have zero interest in skiing Copper, Wanker Park, etc.). Alterra can eat a bag of dicks.
Edit: Guarantee they will figure out a way to expand the parking and/or charge big $$ for both early riser and high noon. All lots have been filling up the past few weekends, yet as long as you move around correctly, you rarely end up waiting in line.
So much for antitrust rules. Two companies are going to own the entire industry.

Watch them build a two story garage in High Noon.
Wow I hate everything about this. $20 bloody's incoming. Only positive I could see coming is unlimited access for the '24 pass season, but I'm not even sure that's a good thing (as a current Ikon passholder). I'd rather be limited to 5 days to improve the experience.
Huge bummer, big disappointment, etc...

Indeed. I often wonder why this isn't really a thing for most ski areas. I'm guessing the costs to build and maintain those structures is a lot. Overall the footprint of going upward instead of outward seems environmentally responsible but there's always the NIMBYS that would probably say it's an eyesore.

Cashless resort
GODDAMMIT. After all the press A Basin has gotten this year about how they were increasingly profitability and guest experience without selling out...
Oh to be a fly on the wall at 6th Alley right about now.
It really is a punch to the gut for my old-school self.
I never even use all my A-Basin days due to distance, but it was always a nice option early and then late season on choice days.
It's such a catch-22 for me as a 50-50 skier, resort/bc, living in a now Ikon-owned resort town. You resort to buying it since the Steamboat-only pass is several hundred dollars more. And I love having skiing options; WP after the boat closes, random weekday visits to Copper, and obv WY and UT resorts every other year or so. But damn I hate what Alterra has done to sbt and I really don't want to give them my money anymore.. But that means no options. And Alterra knows it. So...grrr....
