I dont feel like saving lives yet. Ya they hardly ever have good skiing before Christmas. But when they do get a good storm before the place is usually empty so thats good for me. End to end of the resort with no traffic.

Just like most Monday/Tuesday nights? Those are the times I went the most last year, and it was always DEAD; which made for nights of unbelievable riding.

They were open every day, but it was only like 3 slopes, and it was pretty crappy… But they opened the day they planned and for the first hour they were open it was $4 for a 8 hour pass.

the first day they opened was the best, i made it there within the first hour to get my pass for 4 bucks. the place was mobbed, but cleared out after a while.

are they doing this again for opening day? i remember it was def worth the money!

I don’t believe so, as the $4 thing was because it was the 50th anniversary of Holiday Valley (Also the gold 50th chairs on the lifts); so they rolled the ticket prices back to what it was 50 years ago.
