Last year, I booked lift tickets through liftopia. When the resorts closed and cancelled due to rona, liftopia only issued me a credit instead of giving money back. Right now, I am not seeing places that I could use the credit this season. Anyone have insight or experience? I'm wondering if I should keep checking what's offered or just kiss that money goodbye.

I have no advice here since I always buy direct with EPIC - but I'm pretty certain almost every where and every company is giving refunds if you press them, due to COVID. You should call and ask if you have not already.


On that note... we're hearing rumblings that this entire ticket reservation via EPIC is going to be shot to hell once it opens and COVID cases start showing up. I am sure they will again issue refunds if you purchase ahead, but I would be pretty hesitant to book an entire trip too far in advance right now - flights, hotels, equipment etc.

I would let November/December come and see what all these resorts do. I have a bad feeling a lot will go back to either only locals or shut down completely. Already have announced no bars will be open to start, which is a bummer.

I'm considering Telluride this year, probably in January. Somewhat off the beaten path. I would be hesitant to book anything in Summit County, at least for the time being.

I do kind of think that closing resorts is not an option this year. They are a massive employer/revenue driver, and I would be surprised if they did what they did last year.

We’ll find out soon how much of a pain this season with be at Vail Corp. Reservations open tomorrow. I’m trying to book buddy and kids passes. I’m sure it’ll be a cluster.

I'm going to Beaver Creek the week of Dec 6th. Logging on at 7AM tomorrow to secure lift tickets.

I'm confident we'll be skiing in a month!

You best be praying and dancing snow dances. There is none right now and its been 65 and sunny.

Covid numbers in Denver and Colorado as a whole are not doing well. I'm starting to get some doubt about this season.

Any of you baws in the line to book on epic pass ?

I got in queue at 7:05a and was 55k when it opened. Only 46k after 25 minutes.

Good thing I have Ikon too. I prob should pick up an avalanche beacon and a shovel too.

I checked the site at like 6:40 mtn time and the waiting room was already going. So it opened before the time they originally set. Kinda weird.

You think ill be able to get those Christmas week days. Seems like 26 k ppl had dibs before me. 9k ppl ahead of me now. Any idea how many ppl they can accommodate in a day ? Our trip is fricked if I cant.
