Then, we discuss the seasons Lyndsey Vonn & Mikaela Shiffrin are having; the return of Bode Miller & Peak Skis; Alex Honnold’s upcoming live free solo on Netflix; whether ski areas fudge their snowfall and conditions reports; and more.

Re: Season’s Passes:
I have been buying a season’s pass at my local hill in large part because I want them to continue existing no matter how bad of a snow year it is. It’s a smaller hill so the pass isn’t too expensive, but also only has 2 chairs consistently running…
But then the mega-passes, I don’t care much for. I only have access to one Vail-owned resort, so why pay for all those other ones I can’t afford to go ski at?
So then: should I consider a season’s pass (if I can afford it) my donation to the ski community? Like my 25$ membership to my local MTB association??
