If you order a "COMPLIMENTARY CHILD/SUPER SENIOR LIFT TICKET" from the website, this is NO LONGER A DIRECT TO LIFT product. What a pure crock of shlt. This was DTL all season until (as I was told by an employee) the resort changed the policy about two weeks ago, now requiring you to come to a ticket window to "activate" the pass.
"Whether you've reloaded an existing One Pass RFID Card or purchased a new one, in-person validation is required. These tickets may not be picked up from a kiosk. Please visit any open ticket window with the user(s) of the child and/or super senior lift tickets and this order confirmation for in-person validation. Be aware in-person validation is unavailable at Bear Mountain Monday-Thursday, except Christmas and President's Weeks."
What a f%cking pain in the ass, with kids in tow . . . . why do it online if this is what happens . . Fix this Killington

Must be the same people who abuse the Subaru parking.
Howdy Beast Fans,
If you are bringing young children and your aging father, all of who need extra assistance, please be sure they are prepared to take the extra steps needed to validate their passes. This will require going to a physical ticket window and may require ascending and descending multiple staircases, circumnavigating crowded lift mazes, and traversing muddy and icy pathways in ski boots.
We don't call it The Beast for nothing.

Seems this could be a once a year thing like the waiver, they could take a picture and put it on the actual pass, then validation could be done at any lift when the youngster or oldster first scans for the day.

The bus drops you off right at the ticket window at snowshed....the horror.
Getting people ready to walk through the Village laden with equipment. Problem?
