ive seen videos of guys riding the park then walking up..would it be a problem if i just rode the lift up there early when its free..then just do that? i just got new skis and money is tight right now.

im pretty sure if someone caught you they could ban you from the mountain. They get pretty pissed at people like that, but i guess its possible

u can do that, but it would probably be real tiring to walk up the whole thing

In the summer, I would walk all the way from the wy'east lodge at t-line up to windells. thats a long way. I never got caught though.

go for it.

except they check your age sometimes... happened to me at killy, dumbass sold me the wrong ticket, also by buying a lift ticket that is like your waiver to be at the mtn, it is the legal aggreement or whatever... i am pretty sure, therefore hiking is illegal, I saw kids get asked to leave killys park when they rode over from pico and we've kicked kids out of our small resort for hiking the hill, it is theft of services...
Buy a lift ticket or get a job as an instructor, have fun giving lessons and ski for free when you arent teaching... good deal

my mountain is technically owned by the state and they couldnt nail kids for "use of services" or whatever. i wouldnt hike it though cause there's no park anymore

our slopes says that lift tickets are incorrectly named and that they are area passes. because it is their land and you need to pay to be on it

I have hiked many parks, with my pass in a pocket out of view, and never been questioned.
