[New!] August 19, 1998 - What? There's no snow yet! But i wanted to let you know that i'm working on a new service that will allow you to leave your own snow reports for other skiers and boarders, so we don't have to rely on the sometimes questionable reports of the resorts themselves. The code was generously donated by the Southland Ski Server, where you can see what these reports will (hopefully) look like.

[Old!] July 7, 1998 - It's all over. *Sniff*. Everything's closed for skiing/boarding. Squaw re-opened for the July 4th weekend, and i heard it was pretty fun. But i didn't go. >:-{

Notes:

*Donner Ski Ranch's Half-Day starts at 1:00pm
+Squaw closes down part of the mountain on 5/3. Remainder is open through 5/31. Give 'em a call if you want to know exactly which lifts/runs will be open.

**Sugarbowl will have only Nob, Silver Belt, Disney, and Christmas Tree lifts in operation after 4/19. Tickets are only $35 though ($17 Wednesday).

If you're wondering what all the (3/4) and (5/6) stuff is about, it's a lift ticket that's good for 3 out of 4 days. So you don't have to ski three days in a row, but can take one day off. Some places offer (6/8), so you get two days off. (So if it's not noted, then it's probably consecutive days.)

(And if you can take eight days off to ski, then i hate you, and do you have any job openings? :-)

Sorry kids. All these are adult prices. Do check the sites though, because a lot of places are offering discounted tickets if you're 18-22, etc. But bah, i'm not. >:-P

Links:

Southland Ski Server would be the Southern California counterpart to this page, except that Mark is even more obsessed than me, and actually solicits and compiles skier reports, too. Yikes.

Lots of good skiing/snowboarding info is available in the
<shameless plug>rec.skiing FAQ</shameless plug>.

At Play's page is one of those commercial sites i was talking about. No side-by-side price comparisons. It does have an ok map, though.

SnoWeb's page isn't bad. Lots of info. But still, all i want (and maybe all *you* want) is prices.

Miscellanea:

This page was created because none of the sites out there had a side-by-side comparison of prices. And, they were all pretty commercial. i figured i could find the info that i wanted, and make it available to the net. Give something back, if you will.

All of these prices have been confirmed by visiting their webpages. Nonetheless, i am not responsible for the accuracy of any of the information on this page. Certainly you should call the numbers listed, or check the links yourself if you want to be sure of the prices.
