Seniors get great specials during the week. Seniors should note that several major areas have raised the age bracket for their senior skier tickets, making us think that there are so many healthy oldsters that the age limit is going up with the ticket price. Next Sunday, parents can ski for free with a paying child, one to a parent, at Tahoe-Donner. This cozy little area just north of Truckee is perfect for beginners and low intermediates. Both offers are good during nonholiday periods.
Alpine skiers can save anytime through two gas station promotions.
Over at Heavenly, a new deal called the mEticket offers savings for those who ski three or more days. The mE-ticket is interchangeable at all nine American Skiing Company resorts across the country. If your favorite resort is not mentioned, call or cruise the Web and find yourself a good deal. Let us hear from you.
