Epic & Ikon Passes
for 2025
All of our 2025 trips will be going to resorts that honor one of the multi-resort season passes. You may purchase passes directly from the suppliers (click on the logos above), but several of our our tour operators have promotions (listed below) offering discounts or rebates in conjunction the trips you might take with the club.
You may wish to consider purchasing your passes through them. The
exceptions are Military Epic passes and military discounts on Ikon passes, which are only available from the
suppliers (more below on military passes).
You should consider purchasing passes early-on as the costs typically increase periodically as winter gets closer, and pass sales (for all but the Epic Day Passes) typically end in early December:
- Epic Pass prices increased on 5/28/2024, 9/2/2024, and 10/9/24. Another price bump is expected on or about November 17th.
- Ikon Pass prices increased on 4/19/2024 and again in mid-October 2024.
