Great question! It's very easy terrain similar to a bunny slope or wide cat track. If you're comfortable on greens, you'll have no trouble and it was steep enough that a snowboarder wouldn't have to worry about getting stuck, unstrapping, and skating to the bottom.
We charged it to our room. However, if you use your Hilton Aspire card to pay for it on site, you should still get the credit. Basically, either way works!
We did have the Epic Pass last season and we brought gear that we own. Both were definitely part of the calculus in choosing this destination for our free night reward stay versus another location!
I tried with my Aspire free night but the rep said this WA does not have a standard room so I could not book it. How were you able to book it since it doesn't a standard for the initial free night cert?
You have to find a night that has standard award availability. When searching, if you select "My dates are flexible" and "Use Points" you'll get an availability calendar. What you're looking for is dates listed as "Standard Room Reward" (110,000 points per night for this property). Unfortunately, because this property is so popular with points people it can be pretty hard to find that standard availability unless you book very far in advance.
My favorite credit card hands down
Such a good value!
How flat is the ski in from the mountain? Don’t want to get stuck coming back lol

Did you charge your dinner to your room or pay with your card at the restaurant ?

Did you have the ski pass? How much is it for a lift ticket and to rent equipment? Thanks!

@Anthony-C9 is spot on!
