Reply To: ski hill rip off

My point is that they are charging full price for a fraction of the services. And as for them losing money right now, they set Dec 10th as opening day regardless of snow conditions because last year when they opened in November, they lost money and they weren’t going to let that happen again. So even if there had been 6 feet of snow 3 weeks ago, they still wouldn’t have opened. They didn’t open for “you seasons pass holders”… It was the date that they chose themselves weeks/months ago so that they wouldn’t lose money like their first 2 weeks last year.

Also, the reason that there were only 125 people is because there’s no snow. I don’t think there’s lack of interest.

14 of 17 major ski hills in BC are currently open.

There are many resorts that offer discounted prices during early and late season because they have found that it attracts more people to come during those not so great seasonal times. Maybe if they tried that there would have been more than 125 people.
