Listed price includes round-trip air.

An IKON Trip with a lift ticket available as an extra-cost option

Only a 45-minute drive from downtown Salt Lake City, our ride to little Cottonwood Canyon enters a world entirely dedicated to skiing.  Snowbird alone has more than 2,500 acres of mountain peaks, dramatic chutes, snow filled bowls and wide open groomed runs.  It features an ariel tram that goes to 11,000 feet and a 3,240 vertical drop.  Snowbird is known for challenging terrain with 43% advanced and 27% expert runs.  The mountain connects with Alta, a skier only mountain adding 2,614 acres.  Alta has a 2,538 vertical drop and 118 runs with 55% expert, 30% intermediate and 15% beginner trails and emphasizes skiing over luxury.

Snowbird's Gad Valley

Our first trip of the year includes  7 nights (Sat-Sat) in the Cliff Lodge (hotel rooms) with daily breakfast buffet, round-trip air from Washington to Salt Lake City (details below - NONSTOP on our return), and ground transfers.

Cliff Lodge

The skiin/ski out convenience and excellent service can’t be beat in this iconic and luxurious lodge.  An on-site ski rental and repair shop and complimentary ski lockers add to the ease of the day. Our location is within walking distance to the Snowbird pedestrian village.

After a day on the mountain, relax at the outdoor pool, hot tubs  or The Cliff Spa. The Cliff Spa features over 30 treatment and salon services, yoga studio, fitness center, rooftop pool and hot tub.  Access to The Cliff Spa is available for an additional fee (discounted for our club members).

Queen/Queen Room

Rooms face the slopes or peer down the canyon affording breathtaking views. Our rooms come with two Queen beds, a small refrigerator, television, hairdryer, iron/ironing board, humidifier and coffee maker. Other hotel amenities include an exercise room, resort wide internet a service, room service and a concierge.

Single Rooms:  Listed price is for double occupancy; add $1,650 for the single supplement if you want a room to yourself. Your trip leader will confirm the availability of a single.

Breakfast:  The trip includes a daily Skier's Full Breakfast Buffet, served in the SeventyOne restaurant in the Cliff Lodge's lower level. Our Saturday departure is early however,  the restaurant is open at 6:30 so we can eat early before departing.

Ikon Pass Benefits:  If you're planning to ski at more than one "Ikon" resort this winter, an 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 provides 7 days (total/combined) at Alta & Snowbird.
• An Ikon Base Pass gives you 5 days at Snowbird (only).

Ikon Passes must be individually purchased (not through the club).  You may purchase Ikon Passes directly from Ikon, 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.

Group Lift Tickets:   Group lift tickets are available as an extra-cost option for skiers without an Ikon Pass.  You can upgrade to also ski at neighboring Alta for an estimated $75/day at the resort.  There is no senior discount as the lift tickets are offered as part of an all-inclusive group package, but 80+ seniors ski FREE at Alta (only).

The one-day ticket is for Ikon Base Pass holders who wish to ski all six days.

Air Schedule:    Flights (Subject to Change) on United Airlines

Membership Requirement:  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 July 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.
