During a weekend drive to Salt Lake and back this weekend to see Real Salt Lake’s losing (but intense) effort against FC Dallas, I began think of all the ways I’ve used to get 2-1 lift tickets. As the list grew, I expanded my horizons and found more, and more, and more.

However, there are still more I have not found, use the comments section at the bottom to let me know the 2-1 pass deals you’ve finagled or the ones your resort is running:

      About Gregg & SlopeFillers
      I've had more first-time visitors lately, so adding a quick "about" section. I started SlopeFillers in 2010 with the simple goal of sharing great resort marketing strategies. Today I run marketing for resort ecommerce and CRM provider Inntopia, my home mountain is the lovely Nordic Valley, and my favorite marketing campaign remains the Ski Utah TV show that sold me on skiing as a kid in the 90s.
