My fiance and i are from Canada and decided to buy the ultimate passes this season. Even with the exchange rate, this was a great deal for us. We have been out about 5 times already and its been fantastic so far. Compared to our home resort, the conditions are so much better, the runs are a lot of fun, and the staff are so pleasant!
The only downside has been the price of food, but we just bring our own lunches now.
