So much for not competing with the Epic pass - this is pretty much tanks on the lawn for Cali and Colo.
I would say yes, in those states, but not elsewhere, as has been pointed out.

"Current line-up" certainly leaves room for changes.
The rumor I overheard in the A-basin season pass office a while back was this is the last season of the agreement between Vail Resorts and the independently owned A-basin.That would mean it (A-basin) would have to be dropped from the Epic pass however.
It was always going to be challenging to say the least to offer unlimited skiing to Deer Valley and Aspen when their passes are over $2,000. Not to mention the "push back" from their current customer base.
Hell even Calgarian weekend warriors might consider it their main pass - 14 days across Banff/Louise/Revy plus a road trip to Big Sky etc .
Just trying to understand. why is Steamboat a "green" for Gathering and Winter Park an orange, but Copper nothing?My attempt at a summary

With 7 days, why is DV not a green?
So disappointed by the way Ikon is treating the East.
Happy for all you Westerners, but he East options are really souring.
Love the Sugarbush add back east, Makes it really compelling. Combining the Loon, SR, and SL days make it a tough sell for someone coming out of Boston. There currently are not enough days for me back east on this pass for it to be my main pass as I do not want to ski Stratton as my home mountain (too far for the crowds it has). What makes this pass is not the availability or the price, but the mountains it has. Getting days at Sugarbush, Boyne, K, Jackson, Revelstoke, AltaBird, and Aspen is previously unheard of. Minus Stowe, those are the mountains I love most back east and some incredible western destinations.
The base pass coupled with another cheaper pass to something like Ragged or even Peaks could work though. Still looking at under $1000 for some incredible western mountains and excellent long weekends back east.
?? How ?Base Pass. Done.
Wachusett, Sunapee, Okemo, and some of the Peaks mountains are all good day trips from Boston. Adding one or more of those would let a Boston-area skier do both day trips plus weekend trips to Stowe and would cover all Western destination trips. Jay + Burke would make for some very enticing weekend trips.
