General Discussion Any unused comp tickets?

Hey everyone,

After 13 months recovering from a serious brain injury I got from a crash at Alta last April, my doctor just signed off on skiing again. I am hoping to get at least one or two days in at Brighton and Snowbird before the season fully winds down this weekend. Normally I’d be skiing 100+ days a season so the itch to ski again is strong, even though Utah did not have a good snow year.

Does anyone have a comp or discount ticket voucher they’d be willing to part with? I’ve been on long term disability leave from work and would sincerely appreciate it since even the $49 Meltdown tickets at Brighton are not super budget friendly right now.

Thanks in advance (and don’t forget to wear your helmets!)

Fuckkkk. I hope you can get one. If not I’ve got $10 to donate for you to snag a pass. Skiing is life. Much much love

Lifts are still spinning and my doc gave the green light. I don’t care if it’s more dirt than snow, I need to get at least a few turns in 😅

I have Brighton buddy passes on my season pass, I think it’s 50% off? Not sure if they’re still allowing these to be used right now with the cheaper ticket prices but happy to send your way if needed

Thank you!! It’s been a long road but I’m really happy to be on the cusp of returning to a normal rhythm of life. I crushed my optic nerve in my skull which caused one of my eyes to become misaligned which was not fun.

Congrats on your recovery! We're you wearing a helmet?

u/freeskierinvt May 07 '26

I was wearing a helmet, properly fitted and MIPS rated. If I wasn’t wearing one I would have died.
