If you plan to visit a ski resort more than 6 times you should consider
getting a
season pass. Alternatively, many ski areas offer buy-ahead lift ticket options (further
ahead you buy, the more you save) including ticket packs, partial day lift tickets and discount lift
ticket days where you can save some significant money. And the smaller ski
areas in Maine always offer tremendous value for your outdoor recreation
dollar.
