Not quite available yet, but a teaser on FB says that the MAX Pass for 2017-18 will include Windham as well as Belleayre, Gore, and Whiteface.  Price is a little higher than last season.  Will be over 40 mountains, compared to 39 for 2016-17.  Supposed to be available mid-March.

Awesome pass and wicked expensive, sigh.  Too bad they killed the Intrawest passport.  Another option for the east is the peak pass.  http://www.peakpass.com/

From one of their post from yesterday.

 Here's our announcement for 17/18 passes. Passes will go on sale on Tuesday, March 14. $629 for adults with a $49 down payment option and $329 for the adult add-on pass.

We are now at 44 mountains with the addition of Gore, Belleayre, Whiteface, Windham, Lutsen and Granite Peak.

With those new places, I may not even bother with my Snowtime pass next year!  We were likely going to pick up an Empire pass for next year- we loved our weekend at Gore this past season.

Anyone going to get a MAX Pass before the price goes up in early May?

Do you know how much the price will likely increase after May?  $629 is a good price with the addition of the Catskills.

Last year the price went up $50 and that price was good until mid-Oct.  I'm holding off because I don't really know how many days I can get in skiing in the northeast next season.  Figure the difference is the about the cost as one midweek ticket at places I'm interested in checking out when I have other reasons to drive north.

Already have the MCP for trips out west.  My friends I travel with opted to return to Taos instead of going back to Big Sky.  So not likely to make use of the MAX Pass except perhaps for a day or two at Solitude or Brighton when I'm at Alta during late season.

Price went up to $679 on 5/2 as expected for the standalone MAX Pass.  No date given for the next price increase.  Add-on price still $329 for qualifying season passes.

Anyone know what the teen (13-17) and child prices were?  $479 and $379 now but I don't know if those increased or not.
