Our final day of operation for the 2020-2021 season is Sunday, March 7th.
We have multiple events and activities scheduled for our final weekend. For more info, please visit our Calendar of Events page.
If you purchased lift and/or rental for dates after 3/7/21, our Ticket Office will be refunding your purchase in the next few days.
This takes 3-5 business days to reflect back on your card.
Thank you for a wonderful season and we hope to see you on the slopes this weekend!
>>> NEW this year is our SmartPass online lift ticket and rental ordering system. <<<
Prepay online. Skip the lines. Hit the slopes with our SmartPass
online lift ticket and rental ordering system.
For your safety and to get you on the slopes faster, we STRONGLY recommend using this online system to prepay for your lift ticket and reserve your rental equipment.
Order your lift and/or rental online by 3 PM the prior day of your scheduled arrival. We will have your lift ticket and/or rental preset when you arrive!
This will allow Guests to pick up their tickets at the outside ticket window, then proceed to the designated area on the outside of the Mountain Center (closest to Beginner Area) to pick up their preset rental equipment (if applicable), and then hit the slopes. Your rental will be available until 5 PM the day you arrive unless you purchase the after 4 PM lift ticket.
SmartPass rental reservations must be ordered by 3:00 PM the day prior to your visit. During peak weekends, we will limit the number of SmartPass reservations with rental to 375. During peak weekend days, “SmartPass” reservations may book up BEFORE the 3:00 deadline. If you were unable to make a rental reservation, rental will be available the day of your arrival on a first come, first serve basis.
