Ikon Pass

This is the newest option for those visiting the Park City area who are looking to ski Deer Valley Resort and even Solitude Resort. If you only plan on skiing Deer Valley for 7 days or less, the Ikon Pass could be the perfect option for you. Many will find they can spread the ski days during a trip out a little further by adding a few day trips to Solitude while they are staying in Park City. The Base Pass that has certain blackout dates throughout the ski season starts at $750 and includes unlimited access to many other ski destinations if you are an avid travel skier.

Mountain Collective Pass

The Mountain Collective Pass is becoming more and more popular amongst local avid skiers and is somewhat of a "supplement" pass to add on to either the Epic or Ikon passes above. This pass offers two day passes at 17 different destinations with many of these being in Utah or close to it. Resorts like Alta, Snowbasin, Snowbird, Jackson Hole, and Sun Valley are all in on this pass and if you do even minimal days at other resorts throughout the ski season this can be a real money saver option. We find lots of locals who will purchase an Epic or Ikon and also want to travel to other destinations making this the perfect add-on pass. If you are someone who wants to ski a variety of areas but may not need more than one or two days at each location then this could function perfectly as a season pass for you at an affordable price.
