don't even start!

in australia it's HELLA expensive. next years passes are $749 (ish, can't remember the exact cost) at the cheap rate if you were lucky enough to get them by the cut off date. season passes here are usually in excess of $1200 -- so you guys in north america have it sweet compared to us.

that, AND our season only lasts 3-4 months. consider yourselves lucky!

What I dont get is, like you said you can get a season pass to squaw for 350. But if I just want to go for the day its like 70 bucks. so I would have to spend a whole week skiing to total the 350. But I can ski for a whole season for 350? I always thought season passes were more expensive, like above 1,000. correct my math if im wrong.

exactly. an all day pass here is $40, so it should be like $120+for a season pass. i would pay up to maybe $300 for a season pass for here, so now im just applying for a job there
