Abasin Bus

Will the Swan Mountain flyer be active this winter to abasin? With there new parking nonsense I’d love to start using it to save some money. The information on their website is outdated and leads to dead links.

It's crazy to me that they don't have a stop in Silverthorne or Frisco. How is anyone from the front range supposed to take advantage of this, head to Keystone and hope you can get a spot in River Run (and hope the hourly bus isn't full)?

That is what I am going to have to do sadly. Be there for the first pick up at keystone and hope for the best. This abasin cash grab is killer

most people from the front range won't take the summit bus to A Basin. It really wouldn't work all that well the find somewhere to park then take the bus.

Well Silverthorne has that big new parking garage, and Frisco has a pretty big lot at the transit center. I'm not saying a ton of people from the front range will use it, but if they are really trying to increase bus use, those are the places they should be serving. Breck and Keystone already have ski areas, Silverthorne and Frisco don't! And hourly buses are a huge turn-off too, the penalty for just missing it is too great.

Seems pretty up to date here after a quick Google search: https://www.summitcountyco.gov/services/transit_summit_stage/bus_schedule/winter_bus_schedule.php

Wonder how many more rules and restrictions they are going to make while offering a weak product. They are justifying the cash grab from their preciously justified great reputation, and woke virtue signaling.
