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 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 perks to being a passholder. Check out our Passholder Benefits page to learn more.
2024/2025 SEASON PASS GENERAL INQUIRIES
What is the Power Pass?
Every Power Pass product provides access to some of the best skiing in the Southwest (and now the PNW, too!) With nine resorts available on every pass, you can ski Willamette Pass while having access to skiing (and biking!) in Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and, yes, even Texas.

What is the difference between the Power Pass Select and the Power Pass?
The Power Pass provides unlimited access to all ten mountains with no blackout dates, whereas the Power Pass Select provides 12 restricted days to share between Snowbowl, Purgatory, and Lee Canyon (blackout dates: 12/27/24-12/31/24, 1/18/25-1/19/25, 2/15/25-2/16/25), and unlimited access at all remaining mountains at a lower price point than the Power Pass.
Both passes include six discounted lift tickets (each 35% off the online rate & valid at any U.S. Power Pass mountain through the 2024/2025 season) and 10% off on-mountain services, including food and beverage, ski school, and rentals (valid at any U.S. Power Pass mountain through the 2024/2025 season), plus 7 interconnected days at Valle Nevado and La Parva for the 2024 winter season – no blackout dates. Interconnected days provide access to the two resorts within a single day. This benefit is valid for a total of 7 days skiing at Valle Nevado, La Parva or both resorts.
Can I ski in Chile with my Power Pass?
The 2024/2025 Power Pass and Power Pass Select both include 7 FREE interconnected days between Valle Nevado and La Parva ski resorts in Chile. That means you can ski at one or both (They are connected! So you could ski both in one day!) resorts for 7 total days in their 2024 ski season. View all benefits here.
What’s the Weekday Power Pass?
New! The Weekday Power Pass grants weekday access to all U.S. Power Pass Mountains. Choose from 1 up to 5 days of weekday skiing all season long and select the days that work best with your schedule (Monday through Friday) for the whole season.
EX: If you select the Weekday Power Pass, then opt for 2 days, you could choose to ski Mondays and Fridays at any US Power Pass resort all season long, or Tuesdays and Thursday, or any other 2-weekday combination.
Blackout dates: Saturdays, Sundays, 12/27/24, 12/30/24, 12/31/24.
Does my season pass come with buddy tickets?
The Power Pass, Power Pass Select, Power Pass Core, and Weekday Power Passes come with six discounted lift tickets that are 35% off the online rate, valid at any U.S. Power Pass mountain through the 2024/2025 season.
The Willamette Weekday Pass comes with six discounted lift tickets that are 35% off the online rate, valid at Willamette Pass only through the 2024/2025 season.
You can use this benefit for yourself or share it with family or friends. Learn how to use your buddy ticket here.
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!)

SEASON PASS PAYMENT PLAN
Can I still use the payment plan?
Our season pass payment plan for the 24/25 season has ended and will not be available for this season.
What’s the season pass payment plan?
When you choose the payment plan, there is no interest and your pass price is divided into equal monthly payments. Equal amounts are automatically charged on the 1st of each month until your pass is paid off in full. Learn more about the payment plan.
You can use your pass anytime while you’re still paying for it.
Do I still get the same benefits if I choose the payment plan, rather than paying it all at once?
Yes. Enjoy all the benefits of being a season passholder while you’re paying for your pass.
Is there interest or a finance charge when I choose to pay with the payment plan?
No. There is no interest when you choose to pay with the new payment plan. Payments that are declined may be charged a $20 administrative fee per incident.
How many months will it take to pay for my pass when I choose the payment plan?
The payment plan is an automatic monthly payment plan. The number of payments–and the number of months– depends on when you purchase your season pass. All payments are complete on December 1, 2024. As of now there will be 2 payments.
Do I have to wait until my pass is paid in full before I can use it?
No. As long as you are making the monthly payment, you can use the available winter benefits anytime.
How can I update my credit card on file?
You can update your card on file online here!
Is the payment plan an option for all season pass products?
Yes, the payment plan is available on all season pass products!
