Bogus Basin Mountain Resort is pleased to announce the mountain will return to a full 7-day/7-night operation and keep the price of a full-day lift ticket the same for the 2004-05 season. Management and the board of directors have arrived at the pricing for 2004-05 as the resort kicks off its 7th annual low-cost season pass sale. �We�ve had a terrific season so far and we�re happy to offer the same kind of affordability as in past seasons,� said Mike Shirley, general manager. Season passes will go on sale this Monday, March 1, 2004. Prices are $229 for guests 12-69 years. Youth pass pricing for kids ages 7-11 is $49, and family passes are $940. Pricing does not include tax. Skiers and snowboarders can purchase passes and use them through the end of this season and all of next season.

The 2004-05 season pass sale runs March 1st through April 15, 2004. There will be no other discount sale for Bogus Basin season passes, as there was last fall. A regular all-day ticket will remain at $40. Night tickets will stay at $20 (4pm-10pm). As in this season, there will not be a half-day ticket offered.

Bogus Basin will include Superior/#3 chairlift in the nightly operation. The ski/ride off rate is just 6 times. Season pass holders can take advantage of �Hot Deal� discounts around the valley and beyond. Hot Deals include discounts at neighboring ski areas, ski/snowboard shops and at other area merchants. Additionally, alpine passes are valid at the Bogus Basin Nordic Center at Frontier Point.
