The 2014/15 Vail Epic Pass = $729
They also have lower priced options that include various limitations, such as blackout days or a 10 day limit at Vail/Beaver Creek, depending on where and when you most likely ski. As their ads say, it pays for itself with 5 days of skiing. Interesting that they now have multiple resorts at Lake Tahoe. Note that I believe Mt. Brighton is not the same as Brighton resort in Big Cottonwood Canyon (and Afton Alps ain't in THE Alps).
Unlimited Resort Access:
- Vail
- Beaver Creek
- Breckenridge
- Keystone
- Canyons
- Heavenly
- Northstar
- Kirkwood
- Afton Alps
- Mt. Brighton
- Arapahoe Basin
No Blackout Dates. *NEW* Now Includes 5 consecutive days at Niseko United, Japan.

NOTE: Obviously this is just my summary. If the resort web page says something different, then they are the ones that really know what they are doing (or that will pay for their mistakes). I don't plan to reimburse any of you if I made a mistake copying information. OK?? OK!
If you know of any other sources of discount lift tickets, add it in. Liftopia we probably all know about. Almost all of the ski shops in Sandy, UT used to have good deals on lift tickets (at least for the Cottonwood Canyons). I was surprised this year to find that this was no longer the case, the discount was only a few dollars.
