An Epic 1-Day Pass to Mid-Atlantic resorts like Seven Springs, Liberty, Jack Frost, and Roundtop will save skiers and riders up to $67 compared to the cost of a 1-day lift ticket purchased in resort
SEVEN SPRINGS, Pa., November 18, 2024 – Pittsburgh-area skiers and riders who start planning for winter now will lock in the best deal when visiting close-to-home resorts like Seven Springs, Liberty, Jack Frost and Roundtop. Skiers and riders have just two weeks left to save up to 60% compared to lift ticket prices before Epic Day Passes go off sale for the season. All Epic Passes, including Epic Day Passes, are only available until December 2, providing the best value for guests planning to ski or ride even just one day this season.
An Epic 1-Day Pass to Mid-Atlantic ski resorts costs $61 for adults ($32 for kids), providing up to $67 savings compared to the cost of purchasing a 1-day lift ticket in resort. Epic Day Passes unlock access to eight Mid-Atlantic ski resorts in Pennsylvania including Seven Springs, Hidden Valley, and Laurel Mountain in the Laurel Highlands; Jack Frost and Big Boulder in the Pocono Mountains; Liberty Mountain Resort outside of Gettysburg; Roundtop Mountain Resort near the capital, Harrisburg; and Whitetail Resort in the Tuscarora Mountains.
With Epic Day Pass, the price per day decreases the more days a guest plans to ski or ride, up to seven days, with the option to choose which resorts they want to visit. Guests can also add peak day access when building their Pass for an additional charge. All Pass Holders receive 20% off group ski and ride school lessons, on-mountain food and beverage, lodging, equipment rentals, and more with Epic Mountain Rewards.
“We know how important value and flexibility is to our guests as they plan for the winter ahead,” said Courtney Goldstein, chief marketing officer for Vail Resorts. “That’s why we created the Epic Day Pass, so skiers and riders can build their own Pass to use at their favorite mountain resorts, lock in incredible savings compared to the cost of lift tickets, and then decide later when and where to ski and ride.”
All Epic Passes go off sale December 2 – including the full Epic Pass ($1,107 adult, $546 kids), the Northeast Value Pass ($652 adults, $458 college). Epic Local Pass ($859 adults, $417 kids), Epic Military Pass ($223), plus Epic Local College Pass ($720) and Adaptive Pass ($492). Guests visiting any of Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations can store their Pass on their phone and get scanned hands-free at the lift with Mobile Pass on the My Epic app.
Locking in a Pass now provides Pass Holders immediate savings on lodging this winter. During the upcoming lodging Cyber Sale, Pass Holders can save up to 30% on room rates across Vail Resorts’ portfolio of hotels and vacation rentals conveniently located near the mountains. Pass Holders get the maximum savings and early access to the sale starting November 25, with public access starting November 26. The sale is eligible to book through December 3. Minimum night stay requirements and other terms and conditions apply.
