Me and the homies went to PC and rode 3 kings a couple times at the end of last year and the vibes were so insane that we planned on getting passes for this season. But did they get rid of 3 kings? Is there gonna be the same park setup there always has been? What’s the deal

It is hard to beat three kings laps and jupe laps with da boys. It's a nice day off from the LCC madness

depends when you ride. if you've got m-f open I say Brighton. if you're using this after work or on weekends go woodies. brighton just has so many jerries, classes, rando events happening, etc. if you're not skiing m-f you're hosed. brighton obviously has all the good smoke spots and the parking lot soak is unmatched, but it was pretty lame this season just trying to get a good run through the park without being swarmed

Yeah this was inevitable, basically every other resort has a paid parking/parking reservation program.

Resorts like keystone and Breck have had paid parking for ages, it's shitty for locals and especially young skiers with less money, but there are free places to park, just have to get used to the new way of things. If people did it in keystone and Breck for years, y'all can do it in PC.

Or ski at woodies 🤷‍♂️

I know it’s from like 8:30-1 so if I show up prior to 8:30 can I park for free or does it now work like that

I read its free before 830 but if you want to stay in the lot after 830 you have to pay. Im guessing it will be an app you pay through with your licence plate number or something, I doubt they'll have a gate/someone you pay to get into the lot. Rather, it sounds like people will patrol the lot checking car tags/plates to make sure you paid and if you don't its a $75 fine, so they seem pretty serious about it.

They started off being strict w/ non VR workers who worked out of the resort but some mornings they would turn you around before 7:45-8am, so combined with traffic it was a nightmare getting to work, but it got pretty laxed mid season getting to work before 7:45.

But yeah they don't let you in the lots too early which will still create traffic bottlenecks and congestion.

What a shock that you defend such a vile and evil practice.

Like there was something wrong with these resorts before they started charging for parking...
