Ski more, spend less at Heavenly, Northstar, Kirkwood and more

Plan ahead for these great deals from Vail Resorts

The snow sports industry’s most valuable and best-selling season pass, the Epic Pass, is on sale now with unlimited access to 11 U.S. resorts—including Heavenly, Northstar and Kirkwood in the Tahoe area—offering more than 32,000 acres of terrain for the 2015-16 winter ski season. Priced at just $769 for adults and $399 for children, the Epic Pass allows skiers and snowboarders to experience iconic U.S. resorts all season long.

Skiers and snowboarders can put just $49 down by Sunday, April 12, to lock in the lowest guaranteed pass price for next season, with the balance due in September. The Epic Pass pays for itself in less than five days of skiing and offers a 35 percent savings compared to lift ticket purchases at the lift ticket window. For guests planning on just one ski vacation, the Epic 4-Day offers four unrestricted days of skiing or snowboarding, valid all season long. At $389 for adults, the Epic 4-Day pays for itself in just over two days with a 35 percent savings from the lift ticket window.

“The Epic Pass continues to offer the best deal in the ski industry with access to legendary resorts across the country and some of the best skiing and riding in the world,” said Kirsten Lynch, chief marketing officer of Vail Resorts. “This is the best time to lock in the lowest price for yourself, friends and family, and experience the benefits of owning a season pass for next ski season. The prices will only go up, but we’ll continue to offer unparalleled guest offerings at all of our resorts.”

Starting March 10, guests can benefit from the Turn in Your Ticket program this spring, which allows skiers and snowboarders to apply the cost of their day lift ticket towards the price of an Epic season pass for the 2015-16 ski season. Guests can bring their day ticket to a season pass office at any of the Vail Resorts owned mountains and let the staff know they’d like to put the money towards any season pass product.
