Breckenridge Ski Resort in Colorado wants to give something back to the community. Going forward, skiers who arrive at the hill with more than four people in their vehicle will be charged half-price for parking on weekends and will receive free parking weekdays. So you're telling me that Breckenridge actually charges to use their parking lot? This must be a Colorado move that helps cover the difference between their $400 season passes and the outrageous prices everyone else pays. Instead of charging at all they should offer the spots next to the slopeside bar to carpoolers while solo drivers and anyone in a vehicle that gets worse than 12mpg has to walk a mile in ski boots.
And why wouldn’t people in Breck want to carpool? Better hotboxing opportunities. Though the
vote to legalize marijuana was largely symbolic (read: “meaningless”) you half expect the local police to take the hint and spend more time sleeping in their cruisers.
