Discount Lift Passes Thread

One of the perks of working at a ski resort is the discount passes available to you for other resorts. I work at Mission Ridge Winter Park (Saskatchewan) and have gotten the following deals.

Free passes to Asessippi (Manitoba)
50% of tickets to Silverstar (BC)
2 Free Day Passes to Apex Mountain (BC)

I was wondering for all you resort staff members, what deals do you know of or get because of your job?

Also, if anyone knows about any Banff resort pass deals or others in AB/BC that would be awesome! Booked a trip to go to Banff in the new year.

Thanks!

Same^ My dad used to be on Ski Patrol at Blue Marsh and later Eagle Rock and the whole family gets season passes.
Up until last year I was involved with ski patrol and would get free 1-day passes at most places in PA and decent discount prices at places out of state.
Now I'm in college and use the discount through my school. I got a full season pass at 7 Springs for $275 this year. Normal price is around $700 I believe.

College passes are always a rank bargain for sure, probably the next best thing to a free staff pass deal-wise.
