Seeing how I've been denied twice thus far, I'll ask again & hope that "third time's a charm"...
What's the deal on Heavenly lift tix thru Costco? How much? And are they a 2pak like for other resorts' tix offered there?

Thnx 4 the support, Eric! Btw, missed ya this past Fri nite when a small contingent met up @Mimi's in Concord.
Once someone gives up the goods on the lift ticket cost, I can help shed light on how much cheddar this will run per head. But until that time, I'll go back to twiddlin' my thumbs.
T-minus 2 weeks...
3 days...
18 hours...
36 minutes & counting...
*assuming an 0600 initial "launch" time on Friday, 23 January 2009.

How much are these @Costco? Are they 2-pks... similar to those of other resorts or what?

Wowzers! Your A.D.D. is worse than mine, brah! I hooked you up w/ a reply in Post#298, but I'll reiterate for those who suffer like me & you.
Also, Eric updated the 1st post overnite. We just need folks to say if they are IN or OUT so he can firm up our roster. That's just the 1st step.
Then each person makes a solid commitment by booking their own rooms. While there may be cheaper spots to stay (Lboogie hopes to have a line on some discounts for MontBleu very soon & other folks have their own fave spots up there), we're looking to make the Best Western Station House Inn our official HQ for the wknd. For the 3 nites @Stn House, it's about $130/nt for 4 heads on 2 beds. Go in w/ folks u know on here or bring your own crew to join in on the fun.
I haven't booked yet b/c I'd like to know 100% "for sure" about these damn Costco tix everyone but me has come across. *heh heh* If the lift & lodging pkg deal @Stn House (click me) beats any a-la-carte combo we can put together, that's the route I'm taking.
So for those wondering about cost, we've got a start. If I had to give an early ballpark figure, I'd say... $100 for 3-nite hotel stay, $180 for 3 days of riding, $60 in gas (but actually way less w/ passengers chipping in). Food & entertainment is way too variable to give an good estimate. This will be a decent chunk of change, but it will be well worth it since this has the potential for TONS of fun & mayhem!

Which local warehouse did you see these at? Mine only carries the $110 Kirkwood & the $76 Homewood 2-paks. Never heard or seen Heavenly until y'all mentioned it here. I guess I'll ask 'em to look it up for other locations next time I go in. I kinda want to know 100% that it is, in fact, for Heavenly & not some mix up.
Thanx 4 da reply though, bruddah!

I am OUT...unfortunately. I'll still be riding that weekend, just with my in-laws though. They come out every January for a little Tahoe R&R and that happens to be the weekend they're coming this year. We'll be in Truckee at my folks place riding all over the place (Squaw, Alpine, Mt. Rose and Homewood). Oh wells...

Awww... no BAiC/Tahoe mayhem for you, but at least you'll still be riding, right? And thnx 4 the SotC info. I know I've linked it on i-club many a time. That's why I was wondering where these people have been seeing this Heavenly-Costco deal b/c Darryl & Kevin @SotC are always on top of this stuff. They don't seem to have come across these "mythical" Heavenly 2-paks either...

No BAIC mayhem, but lots of "mayhem" with the in-laws in the drinky department. My father-in-law carries a backpack when he skis so I've got a beer "holster" when I ride!
