Hey guys! I'm in need of help!

I was planning on riding the mountains in mammoth next spring for like a month. The thing is all of my friends have already bought the 'MVP PASS', which was only sold during april, so now im left without a skipass. So what do I have for options for skiing a month in mammoth next year between march-april? I've already e-mailed mammoth for help but they won't answer. Hope to hear from anyone who has done a season there or lives there. Thanks a bunch!!!

College passes are only $299 and the black outs would not effect you

sign up for college classes, buy the pass, drop the classes, get paid.

What do you mean by 'the black outs wont effect me"? So you guys are telling me to sign up for a college class, getting my pass and dropping class day after? Isnt there any other options besides the 'MVP Pass'? Am I fucked?

pretty much that's the best deal around. the blackout days really only happen earlier in the season, and since you're only going to be using the pass later in the season it'll act just like an MVP meaning you won't be restricted in any way using it. it's not hard to get the college pass. they reaaaally don't check to make sure you're in college classes beyond the point in time when you purchase the pass. not fucked, you just have to sign up for some cc units, get the pass, and drop em. unless you dig cc units. then don't drop em and expand your horizons.

The blackout dates are 12/23-12/31 and 2/18-2/19. All before you would get here. Really unless you are vacation and it is the only time you can come to Mammoth it is the worst time to ski Mammoth. I do not even like to the grocery store during those times.

Definitely get the college pass. It's an even better deal than your friends MVPs.

Säger du som redan köpt dig ett MVP pass. Svarar inte hororna på mammoth får jag väl kolla med folk som kanske vet. Åker inte dit om jag måste köpa ett pass som kostar en oljeshejks årslön.

If you want to be honest about it,

They typically sell season passes for $800 that are full MVP passes come October, but I believe they are only for sale for a month or so.

Probably.

I ski Mammoth about 3 out of every 5 weekends in the winter.  My girlfriend and I buy our passes every year, and it is a great deal.  After they stop selling the MVP, they will usually sell another full pass for a couple hundred more for the next couple of months, but they won't be selling that one anymore either.  I don't know what options you have, other than the college thing, but someone else might have an idea.  Good luck.

This. However i'm confused as to why there is only 5 weekends in a winter?

Men der kommer nye erbjudande på sæson liftkort, du får bare vente på dem.

And does this mean that there will be an Edoggo invasion in Mammoth this spring?
