Vail's New Epic Ski Pass

What a treat for skiers everywhere! Vail Resorts announced a new Epic Ski Pass which is an unrestricted season pass for only $579. You can buy it now for $49 down and pay the balance by September or purchase the pass at full price until November 15th, 2008. This is a great value with the cost of a single day ticket approaching $100. Speculation is that this will help the 4th quarter numbers for Vail Resorts and also encourage visitors to come back for more skiing. Enthusiasts may also want to visit Beaver Creek, Heavenly, Keystone or Breckenridge as the Epic Ski pass is valid at all 5 resorts.
