Ski and Snowboard News, Deals, and Events

Watch for a series of fun, bizarre webisodes to pop up all over the Net. The marketing campaign is meant to broadcast the Super Pass marriage of mountains. A production outfit calling themselves Freeze Company illustrates their camaraderie through a series of wacky sitcom-ish online videos starring the three mountains - portrayed by actors dressed up like Steamboat, Copper Mountain, and Winter Park - living together ala Three's Company (Freeze Company).

There's even Mr. V (as in Vail), the uptight landlord. Watch the world premiere of these sweet webisodes on the Freeze Company Web site.The Freeze Company posse is expected to be onhand at events throughout the season, so look for their van for prizes and hijinks.

Copper, Steamboat, and Winter Park's Rocky Mountain Super Pass Plus and Ultimate Pass holders who purchased or renewed their passes by Oct. 12 have the added benefit of a free two-day lift ticket at Whistler-Blackcomb, B.C., as well as a vacation package that includes 20 percent off lodging and airfare from Denver starting at $149 per person, one way. 

The Rocky Mountain Super Pass allows unrestricted skiing/riding at Winter Park and Copper. The Super Pass Plus includes six days and unlimited free Friday afternoons at Steamboat, as well.
