Anyone interested in a cheaper Alpine pass just let me know. Every year we get a large group together to purchase the season passes. Nick the Sunday through Friday is a great deal it will be somewhere around $500. Full season will probably be around $650.

Alpine is really worth it. While I like Northstar, it is pretty flat and as of the last two years has become the most crowded of all resorts. Just take a wild guess as to how many of those $299 passes are sold. We eventually stopped going because the only way to get a parking space was to be at the mountain before 8:00 am. Otherwise you were either at the back of the lot or parking at the airport. Either way from the parking lot to the top of the mountain still takes almost 45 minutes. Alpine gets you to the top in less than 15 minutes even with a line.
