That's one person. And you need skis for each person. If you own them you need to store them and you
need good quality gear to enjoy regularly and you need to take the time every day to load and unload. It's a hobby that sucks a ton of resources.

Do you even want to go right now with the ski patrol strike going on? Half the runs are closed and lines are enormous

No, I don't. I just read about it, which led me to look at the prices.

Is the strike the reason prices are so high right now?

Then there are ski rentals, parking, and proper ski gear plus food. The vast majority of Utahns now never ski.

Vail Group has ruined so many resorts. They even seem too cheap to make snow.

Their margins suck, too. They must have insanely high operating costs to have declining margins with these price

night skiing is way less. Ikon base pass is just over $1k for a season pass. It can be done.

Go to a better resort. Won't cost you as much. Also there are many deals to be had, unless you want to pay full price.
