Plan Your Best Colorado Ski Season with the Epic Pass

If you’re planning a Colorado ski trip — or a full season on the mountain — the Epic Pass is one of the best ways to access world-class skiing, iconic resorts, and unbeatable value. From the legendary Back Bowls in Vail to powder skiing in Japan, the right ski pass can define your entire winter.

Below is a clear breakdown of Epic Pass options to help you choose the best fit for your Colorado ski adventure.


Epic Pass: Unlimited Access to Colorado’s Top Resorts

The Epic Pass offers unlimited skiing and riding at premier Colorado resorts, making it ideal for skiers who want flexibility, variety, and maximum time on snow.

Why skiers choose the Epic Pass:

  • Unlimited access to top Colorado resorts, including Vail, Beaver Creek, and more
  • Diverse terrain for all ability levels, from groomers to expert powder
  • Epic Mountain Rewards, with 20% savings on food, lodging, lessons, rentals, and more
  • Flexible travel, ski when and where you want
  • Partner resort access, including up to seven days at Telluride

This pass is best for frequent skiers, destination travelers, and anyone who wants freedom throughout the season.


Epic Local Pass: A Smart Option for Colorado Locals

The Epic Local Pass delivers strong value with some peak-date restrictions.

How it compares:
You’ll still enjoy access to major Colorado resorts and Epic Mountain Rewards, but blackout dates apply during holidays and peak periods. It’s a great choice if you ski mostly midweek or outside busy travel windows.
