Thanks for your patience everyone... good news all around as this has progressed:
1) Pricing is stabilizing at around ~$190 for one adult driver, including overnight stay Saturday, breakfast, box lunch and dinner on Saturday, breakfast Sunday, plus all related activities at the resort. One of those activities is a drive UP the ski trails to the summit of the mountain for photo-ops and checking out the view. To add a second adult, third or fourth adult staying in the same room will be an extra $~80 per person; that will include everything above, except an additional room. We are still working on pricing for children as add-ons (to make it lower, of course). These payments will all be made directly when you book a room at the resort; you will make meal choices, add additional nights if you choose (at $99 per night including all fees/taxes).
For example, a couple could bring a truck to this event and pay ~$270 for two people at the resort (1 night stay, all meals listed, drive up the mountain) + $25 trail fee to go out on the trails on Saturday = $295 for both people for the whole event. if they want to come in on Friday night (this is what I am doing) it will be an additional $99.
2) There will be an additional $25 charge per vehicle for the trail rides; this is to pay for the services of the trail guides who are getting us the access to the trails, which are all on private property. This fee will be collected at the mountain separately from the fees above.
3) I am told I will have a contract in hand before the end of this week; hopefully we will have a phone number for booking your space at the event early next week.
4) We had been planning to try to get permission to drive up the mountain to eat at the summit for dinner; after looking at the costs and potential liabilities of that (dinner + drinks before driving DOWN the mountain) we have decided to make the drive up, take some pictures and enjoy the view, then drive back down and park, THEN do dinner and drinks. I think this will be the best approach for everyone -- you know, all the fun, none of the death
Soo---- just wanted to get everyone an update, and let you know things are looking good, and everything is coming together.... As always, feel free to email me directly with questions!
