Interesting "Test Drive Pass" offer from Saddleback....seems worth it for 3 days of skiing!

The Test Drive Pass
Saddleback is pleased to offer a new way to try the improved mountain experience this winter, The Test Drive Pass.
For only $135.00 (Adults) or $120.00 (Senior, Casablanca, College, Junior) enjoy three, unrestricted, days of skiing or riding and this great price is just half of the deal.

From the date you purchase the Test Drive Pass, until the end of the 14th day Saddleback is open, you can upgrade to a full pass by simply paying the difference. Yes, you receive full credit for the amount already spent. Pass is good all season, not just the first 14 days they're open

The Test Drive Pass will ONLY be available for two months (July & August), so if you’re looking for a new option, big enough to provide you the full, re-invigorated Saddleback experience, this is for you.

Here is their COVID policy about opening....
Pass Buyer’s COVID-19 Assurance Guarantee
In response to questions some of you have asked, we would like to post our simple assurance plan for all of our pass holders. This assurance guarantee applies specifically to the risks associated with COVID-19. Operating dates limited by weather will not be guaranteed.
If, due to COVID-19, the resort opening is delayed beyond January 1st, all passholders will receive a pro-rated credit for the time lost, to be automatically applied to their ’21 – ’22 season pass purchase.
If, due to COVID-19, the resort closes before March 21st, all pass holders will receive a pro-rated credit to be automatically applied to the ’21 – ’22 season pass purchase.
Based on what we know now, we do not believe COVID-19 will prevent the resort from opening this winter. In the event things change and we are not able to open at all this winter due to the pandemic, passholders will receive a 100% credit to be automatically applied to the ’21 – ’22 season.

Interesting rebirth of an old post - I'll jump in and say how pleasantly surprised I was to visit Rangeley recently to find that it is fully open, new stores/restaurants added and you could feel the energy. I was worried after the closure of the mtn PLUS Covid that it would be a ghost town, but it most certainly is not

[tipsdown]

Agreed. Rangeley is very active right now. Real Estate is hot up there with the rebirth of Saddleback. Plus a rural lakeside mountain town is becoming that much more attractive given the current pandemic landscape....

That logo needs to show more of the “Glades”...........

[adamwilkins]

Also, no real difference than the previous logo(s).

Totally forgot about that. Maybe there is some subliminal impact and they decided to keep it.

Saddleback is almost.... Back! We will see how it all works out in the end business wise, but I am rooting for them. I posted a 2020-21 season preview of the mountain on my blog.
