Yeah, it's easy to rationalize that someone else should quit bitching when they were damaged and you were not.So you locals who didn't CHOOSE to use your passes enough that you feel you got ripped off by the resorts (especially when A Basin could have remained closes) either need to get more creative, make skiing a bigger priority (we have missed out on a lot of income by making our ski trips a priority but we know the kids will be out of the house in a few years so money means nothing compared to memories), or just plain quit your bitching as the opportunity was there for most of the season, whether you took advantage of it or not. Sorry for the rant but damn, life sure is hard for us in America!
How about the folks who bought a season pass to use on a trip after the resorts were closed? Can they bitch if they were not refunded or otherwise fairly compensated?
Similar to those folks, I bought my A-basin Pass to use April-June. I have a very long history of doing that, as I have a place at another mountain I use while it's open.
I'm not alone. There's a large migration of dedicated skiers to A-basin after their home mountains close that buy season passes every year.
So, we should all just eat our season passes we couldn't use? Vail gave an 80% credit for those with zero days:

What's fair compensation for those who were unable to use their A-basin Pass?
