The mountain features 12 lifts including Bridger Gondola and “Big Red”, their World-famous Aerial Tram.  With 2500 acres of in-bound terrain and a whopping 4,139-foot vertical drop, there’s plenty of room to explore!

Elk Country Inn

Our trip package includes 7 nights (Sat-Sat) in the Elk Country Inn (hotel rooms) with daily continental breakfast (sleep at 6,311 ft), RT air from Washington to Jackson (details below), and ground transfers.

Hotel amenities include a fitness room and an indoor/outdoor pool and hot tubs.  The Inn is just a short drive from Grand Teton National Park and the Jackson Hole Ski Resort, and less than an hour from Yellowstone National Park.

Settlers QQ Room

Double Rooms:  Our inventory includes a mix of room types which we are offering at different price points, with priority for your preferred type based on your sign-up date.  If  your preferred choice isn't available, the trip leader will – after confirming with you – make an adjustment to your trip invoice.  All rooms include mini-fridges and microwaves:

• The listed "base price" of the trip is for double occupancy in a "Settlers Room"  which is equipped with two Queen beds.  A limited number have a single King bed.
• We have a limited number of spacious "Grand Rooms" costing $100 additional per-person.  These are in the Inn's new Grand Building and are equipped with either one King or two Queen beds.
  

Grand QQ Room

Single Rooms:  Listed prices are for double occupancy.  If you want a room to yourself, the single supplement costs:

• $540 in a Settlers Room
• $640 in a Grand Room
  

Daily Mountain Transfers:  Provided by the hotel (three up in the morning and two back in the afternoon).

Ikon Pass Benefits:  If you're planning to ski at more than one "Ikon" resort this winter, a "full" Ikon Pass may be a better value than the available group lift tickets (see below); it may depend when you buy your pass as prices will increase as winter gets closer.

• A Full Ikon Pass gives you 7 days at Jackson Hole.
• An Ikon Base Pass has no benefits at Jackson Hole.
• An Ikon Base Plus Pass gives you 5 days at Jackson Hole, but is blacked-out December 26-31.  A Base-Plus Pass would only cover you for three days of skiing, Wed-Fri, Jan 1-3.
  

Ikon Passes must be individually purchased (not through the club).  You may purchase Ikon Passes directly from Ikon (including discounted pricing available to military members and their dependents), but we suggest that you visit our Epic & Ikon Pass page to explore the promotional offers that may be available from our tour operators.

If you'll be using an Ikon Pass, we must provide your pass number to the resort so that it counts towards our group lift ticket minimum purchase requirements.  Please enter your Ikon Pass number into your membership profile before registering for the trip, or provide it to the trip leader if you purchase (or renew) your pass subsequent to signing up.

Ikon Lift Reservations:  Skiers using an Ikon Pass will be required to make reservations for their ski days by logging into their Ikon Pass account at ikonpass.com.  You should make your reservations as soon as you sign up for the trip as daily space is limited and could sell out.

Group Lift Tickets:  Group lift tickets are available as an extra-cost option for skiers without an Ikon Pass:

Note:  Prices are tentative.  Once confirmed, invoices will be adjusted, if necessary, for those already signed up. 

You may also purchase your lift ticket directly from the resort.  They recommend purchasing lift tickets at least 14 days in advance of your visit for the best rates and to ensure availability of your desired ski dates.

Air Schedule:      Flights not yet confirmed
         We expect to depart from DCA with a connection into Jackson

Your club membership must be current when signing up for the trip and throughout the duration of the trip.  The trip will be "sanctioned" through the Blue Ridge Ski Council.  Current members of other BRSC member ski clubs may register for the trip beginning August 1.

Payment Schedule:  

We’ll confirm your registration after you've signed up (registered) for the trip and we've received your payment:  Pay online by going to our Partial Payments Page where you can make initial deposits &/or interim payments for one or more trips, and for one or more members, in a single transaction.  You may also make partial payments with credit cards at club meetings.  Note:  If you wish instead to pay for the entire trip (or to pay your remaining balance), you should make your payment directly against your trip invoice.  You can find your invoice(s) from your profile page by selecting your name in the upper right corner of the website when you are logged in.

If you prefer to pay by check, make it payable to the Pentagon Ski Club and mail it to our treasurer:  Tom Gallagher, 8203 Lazy Point Lane, Lorton, VA 22079.  Indicate which trip, and what skier(s), it is for.  Or give it to the trip leader (or to Tom) at a club meeting.
