Today I went snowboarding in Busteni for a couple of hours. I initially went to Azuga filled with hope for good snowboarding conditions on really steep slopes but the gondola was undergoing maintenance for the day.
Getting back to Busteni, I have to note that again the slope was far better than the one in Predeal. I don't know what they do but they do it well. If only it wouldn't cost so damn much.
Which brings me to the point of this post. Here's the economist in me having a field day.
I spent 80 lei on ski trips today and 85 lei yesterday. This means that Predeal was only 6.25% more expensive, while the total travelled distance was 3.81 times bigger. So, for only 6.25% more money I was able to ski 14 times in Predeal in lieu of 6 in Busteni for twice as much time and nearly 4 times the distance.

You can compare the altitude profile to the one in my previous post.
Ski lift costs based on Busteni 5+1 pass and Predeal 1/2 day off-season pass.
