Epic Pass Lineup & Price Reset
Vail Resorts recently announced a bold price reset of Epic Pass products to continue to deliver on our commitment of Epic for Everyone and to honor the loyalty of our pass holders. Epic Pass priceshave been reduced by 20 percent across the board, and are now available to purchase at EpicPass.com for the 2021/22 winter season. The price reduction applies to the entire portfolio of the company’s North American pass lineup. The Epic Local Pass is now available for $583 (down from $729 last season) and the full Epic Pass is priced at $783 (down from $979 last season). This reset takes these products back to prices last seen during the 2015/16 season when the Epic Pass offered access to only 11 U.S. resorts compared to today’s more than 70 resorts worldwide. With the price reduction, the Epic Day Pass, which provides the same season pass value to guests who want to ski or ride just 1-7 days, gives guests the chance to visit world-class resorts like Vail for just $87 for a 1-day pass.

Is there a bike haul season pass?

Vail discontinued the Unlimited Free Ride pass. First they closed the canyons, now keystone is only open Thurs-Sun, and no epic bike pass!? If you’re trying to be a year round resort, you should focus on expanding bike haul, not crushing it. We live in Vail and will be purchasing Snowmass and Winter Park passes this year. Shame on Vail.
