I think Zermatt-Cervinia is the record holder for the Alps, they crossed the triple-digit threshold (in Swiss francs).

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We've done this plenty of times before. Euro and North America pricing model are just different.
So compare season passes and its a different story...
Vail and all other epic resorts plus a load of partner deals in Europe/Japan/Aus was £797 for me.
Tignes/Val d'Isere £990.
I'll get 19 days (2weeks Whistler, 1week CransMontana) from my epic this year so that's £42/day. If I get an extra week in another euro resort on it then its comes down to £32/day.

We've gone Ikon this time - that along with some local passes will get an average day rate of £46, thats skiing 10 areas in Canada/USA for 23 days. Just over the hourly rate in a fridge I would think

Is everything about skiing already been done to death?
Can’t help but notice the rehashing of decade old news appearing with more and more frequency.

Some may disagree @Peter S, but I don't think it's unreasonable to highlight a $300 a day  US lift ticket and relentless (inflation-busting) European price increases.
After all, it's not everyone who has the time or money to spend on a season pass. My view is that day ticket prices could end up killing the golden goose, by putting off newcomers/youngsters - who are the future lifeblood of snowsports.

€86/$100 is a very, very fair price for skiing 1 day at Dolomites on a whim ... up to 8hrs of entertainment and work out comes to under $13/hr ... what other fun can you have for under $13/hour these days ?
