Epic Pass for a Ski Trip?

Long time NS lurker here, but I made an account because I need some advice.

I'm from the east coast and graduating college in December. Me and a friend are planning a ski road trip in January to mainly Utah and Colorado. Is it worth it to get the epic local pass (not worried about blackout dates) and drive around to Vail, Breck, Keystone, Abasin, and Park City? It seems easier than trying to find discount tickets and worth the money if we can get in 10+ days compared to $100+ per day for the CO resorts.

Also, can we get the college pass if we have valid ID but graduate in December?

Any advice you guys can give would be really helpful. Thanks!

Saw your post in main forums but I thought I'd just remind you that if you buy a pass, be sure to do it by Nov. 22 (this Sunday). Its obviously well worth buying a pass if your gonna ski even more than like 4 days. Daily tickets go for as much as $130 at Vail Resorts. Hope this helps!

If your going to be skiing more than a couple days, then yes it will be worth it no doubt. Lift ticket discounts can be hard to come by these days, and the prices are already outrageous.
