Season Pass FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

PRICING

Did prices increase over last year?

No, all pass prices have remained the same from last year!

Why should I buy a season pass if lift tickets will be so low?

A season pass remains the best value for anyone who will ski at least 6 days. Power Pass resorts do not require reservations for passholders, which means you have the freedom and flexibility to ski whenever you want. Plus, a pass means you don’t have to pick your dates in advance and lock them in early to get the best rate, like we suggest ticket purchasers do.

Don’t forget: when you use our no-interest payment plan, your monthly payments may be less than the cost of a single lift ticket.

Plus! There are lots of benefits to being a passholder. Check out our Passholder Perks page to learn more.

Can I apply a Resort Credit to my pass purchase?

Yes! Resort Credits can be applied toward season pass purchases that are being paid in full. Resort Credits cannot be used toward season pass payment plans.

Can I switch dates on the Weekday Power Pass or Willamette Weekday Pass?

Unfortunately, we are unable to switch the days you selected on the Weekday Power Pass or the Willamette Weekday Pass. However, we can add additional days to your pass.

Please contact us at [email protected] to upgrade your pass.

Will you bring the 5-day pass back?

No. We’d encourage you to consider the Power Pass Core – starting at $299 for adults in early season, it’s comparable in price to the 5 day pass and provides nearly a full season of access to Willamette Pass (plus more great perks!)
