NORTH CONWAY, NH - Cranmore Mountain Resort and Waterville Valley announced today that Cannon Mountain, located in Franconia Notch State Park, and Mount Washington Resort's Bretton Woods will join them to offer a new college pass for the 2008-09 season. The new 4-NH College Pass will offer unlimited skiing and riding on 255 trails, 37 lifts, 1,061 acres and 13 terrain parks, making it the college season pass with the most skiing in New Hampshire. Passes go on sale April 1 and in addition to the 2008-09 winter season, the pass will include unlimited spring skiing for the rest of this winter.

The pass costs only $249 with no blackout dates when purchased before May 31, 2008 at Cranmore Mountain. Prices will increase to $279 after that deadline.

"The Threedom Pass has been been very popular with students who like to ski in New Hampshire's White Mountain region, including Mount Washington Valley," commented Cranmore General Manager Ben Wilcox. "The addition of Bretton Woods and Cannon to the Waterville and Cranmore combination makes for a great deal for college kids."

All four areas are located in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and are under an hour's drive from each other. Easy access on Route 93 and Route 16 offer college students a large variety of ski terrain, all within 2 to 2 1/2 hours from Boston.

To qualify for the 4-NH College Pass, students must show a current student ID plus proof of full-time enrollment (12 credits as of fall 2008) with a letter from the registrar's office or with a current college schedule print out.

The 4-NH College Pass can be purchased online at cranmore.com or by calling Cranmore at 1-800-SUN-N-SKI (1-800-786-6754). Cranmore is currently planning to be open through Sunday, April 6, 2008. The new pass, in addition to the Threedom Pass, now featuring Bretton Woods, Waterville Valley and Cranmore; and the Cranmore Happy Trails Pass, are also on sale and offering skiers the best value for skiing and riding in New Hampshire.
