The 2018-19 Pass Quandary

For an Epic ski pass-holder like me, the next logical question for 2018-2019 would be: Which additional pass would make sense for me next winter season, to complement my Epic pass?

Well, two options are at my disposal in the newly minted Ikon Pass and the existing Mountain Collective Pass.

In addition, there's no black-out day on that pass and there are plenty of days for me to do a “sampling” of other resorts combined to the plethora of destination available with the Epic pass...
