Your ticket to independent resorts

How do i use my pass?

To use your Indy Pass, simply walk up to the ticket window and show your physical pass or a government-issued ID just as a Driver's License. They will print you a day ticket, process a redemption for the day and you're free to ski! Some resorts have blackout dates and/or require advanced reservations. Please check the blackout dates page and individual resort pages before planning your visit.

Your pass may only be redeemed once per day and is non-transferable.

Resorts using RFID access systems may charge an additional fee for the purchase of the resort specific RFID card.  These cards are typically reusable and last multiple seasons so please be sure to hold on to these RFID cards and reuse them on your next visit to these resorts. 

Indy Pass Card (RFID)

The physical Indy Pass will include benefits such as expedited lift ticket pick-up at all Indy resorts, and discounts on products and services from Indy Pass partners. If you lose your RFID Card, you may present a government-issued ID at any of our partner resorts, and they will process your redemption.
