Wachusett has gone price crazy. They’ve divided the day into 4 sections and charge you $62 per section. I want to ski from 10:00-4:00 and it’ll cost $124! Go over the border to NH the next nearest mts like Pat’s Peak and it's $79 for the whole day (for better conditions and more trails). I’m tired of companies using Covid excuse for a money grab. Wachusetts has permanently lost my family’s business.
