Andy Kumar

We have had seasons passes here for the past few years. Parking has greatly improved after parking passes have been implemented (which are included in season passes). We have never had issues parking since the parking passes came into effect. Lines are reasonable, at least for the intermediate and advanced runs we go on. Typical wait lines are 5-10 min, although some weekends (fresh snow) lines can be a bit longer. Weather is never that cold, given the lower elevation, and snow is sufficient for enjoying skiing. The acquisition of Mountaineers is awesome, great terrain, and Alpental also has some remarkable runs. Summit East lifts are slow, but if you can stand those slow lifts, fun and varied terrain there. Overall, we feel the trees and terrain are solid, allowing us to grow as skiers and enjoy the winter. Lines the past two years have been mostly minimal (and we almost always go on weekends). We always find a table at a lodge to eat or sandwiches and snacks. Especially the lodge at Silver Fir is nice. It's worth pointing out that the xc-ski center (included in a season pass) is awesome with an extensive (very quiet and serene) trail system.
