Question: Brandt Antoine Montour - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst
: I wanted to start with your new pass-holders that maybe you've learned a little bit more about in these last couple of months. Where are they
coming from in terms of their history in skiings, do you think any of them are new skiers? A lot of them are probably pulled forward or pulled over
from buying tickets at the window prior to this, but maybe you could give us some or learnings from that data set now.
Question: Brandt Antoine Montour - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. That's really helpful. And then my follow-up question is really sort of how you think about pricing heading into a period of potentially extreme
pent-up travel demand where your product focuses on its value proposition, but we could be entering a period where your core customer maybe

cost up? Or are you seeing other leisure businesses have slack in their labor demand create a favorable labor environment for you?
Question: Alexander Rocco Maroccia - Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, Research Division - Analyst
: I have 2 more near-term focused ones. But the first on the timing of Easter, we do have an earlier Easter this year versus the last good comparable
period in 2019. How much has an early Easter weekend moved the needle in the past, especially at more snowmaking heavy resorts that might be
closed in mid-April?
Question: Alexander Rocco Maroccia - Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG, Research Division - Analyst
: Got you. That's helpful. And then the second one is on the Vermont resorts. It's only been 2 weeks, and it's getting late in the season, but can you
