You had to get honor roll and take it in to the office at Saddleback. They'd give you a pass for $49 or $68 no blackout dates. Its called "PEAK" Promoting Education and Activity for Kids

Casablanca is supposed to be really really good, like the Jay peak skiing of ME However, since we haven't really been having that great of weather, unless we get a substantial amount of snow in the next few days, it probably wont be that great

I've skied here 3 times in the past 2 weeks.

The park rangers sooo nice, he has Moment Bibby's and I talked to him about his skis, and he immediately asked how I liked the setup and I told him it was great but the downrail lip needed to be fixed. 5 minutes later I'm riding up the lift and low and behold he's fixing the lip!

I w as here on a powder day (4 feet) and Casablanca was so epic. I personally think the snow and vertical is better than Sunday River!

If anyone has skied here, what's up with their lifties? They give such bad vibe its horrible. I got yelled at on the T-Bar for not holding onto the bar (other friend was holding it) I also got yelled at 5 times on the park lift for riding single instead of double.
