Hey everyone,

I am looking into the plausibility of mobile ticketing on ski resorts (mainly in the rockies) but other places as well.

It will literally talk about 2 minutes, and help me out a ton.

Ill hit you up with mad karma as well.

Rob

My home mountain did this for one year then have up on it. IMO it was really nothing special. It didn't really make things any better or worse

Pass can't get scanned if the reliable smart phone somehow manages to die

I have a season pass to my home mountain so this wouldnt really help me out a whole lot but when I do go to other resorts it will be sooooo helpful. Btw I was tempted to hit 65 and older on the servey

Exactly this. Jackson is going to rfid tixs this year. I hated pulling my pass out to get scanned with hands full of gear. I'm pumped to be able to just walk through the gate onto the chair.

Even if they were still scanning tickets, no way am I pulling my phone out and taking my gloves off.

a little FYI for people not familiar with RFID passes. this really is the only way to do lift tickets/passes I feel.

Done, but same ideas and loop hole as everyone else. I would not like to pull out my phone every time I get on the lift.

What would happen if your phone died in the middle of the day?
