I don't like booting up at the car, hate doing the 1 foot hop, really dislike if it's snowing and gets in my boots! I rarely pay to lock my boot bag
it has my name in magic marker all over it, would be hard to take by mistake. I have used the basket check vs stuffing in lockers. lockers are usually just too small for street boots and bag.
My adventures in booting up at these Mts:
Copper booted up at the car, hop bus to lifts.
Keystone- I70 was a parking lot so we rode public transport bus then took internal MT bus to Peru lift- small lodge w/baskets ($9)
Tremblant- stayed slopeside at Sonnet des Neiges walk out, Back side of Mt has a day lodge w/tables/lockers and places to stash bags and parking.
Vail-$50/day parking close to clock tower, booted up in car/underground parking, was long walk to lift- ugh.
Snowmass- Locker room tucked in across from ticket window at main base,stash bags on top of lockers.or park at two creeks.
Highland- parked in parking garage, entered and used benches and lockers-stashed bags on top of lockers
