Our tour operators usually have a company they work with. If you are looking for specific coverage, ask the agent if it is included in the policy. There are numerous insurance providers with different levels of coverage, and it is very important to read the policy and understand the coverage you are purchasing. The presentation made by IMG Insurance is available here. The National Federation of Ski Councils recently hosted a seminar on trip insurance. The decision on whether to purchase an insurance policy – and which one – is entirely up to you, but we do want to provide you with resources to help you make your decision. Note that KOPSC does not require that you purchase insurance before going on one of our ski trips, nor do we recommend any particular insurance vendor. Trip insurance is essentially a hedge against an unforeseen circumstance that may cause you to drop off a trip or leave a trip early, potentially causing a financial loss. While we always encourage our members to consider purchasing trip insurance, COVID is another reason to think about it. To gather more information on pass offerings at our local ski areas visit their websites.ĭespite the COVID-19 news being better this year than last, the virus is still with us for the foreseeable future. Elk Mountain has not posted pass prices as of this date. Jack Frost/Big Boulder and most PA resorts to our west are now owned by Vail Corporation and covered under the Epic pass. Montage has also put their passes for next season on sale with a $100 renewal discount. Deadline to buy the early discount passes is March 31st. It also looks like the daily senior 70+ lift ticket will not be sold. In looking at their websites, it appears you need to buy a separate pass for each mountain if you plan to ski both. Last season, that pass was good for both mountains, or you could ski by the day for $10. If you are a senior (70+), you can get a pass for $70. Season passes for Blue Mountain and Camelback are already on sale. If you anticipate that the majority of your skiing will be at local ski areas, you should be on the lookout for those mountains announcing when their passes go on sale. The only catch is you have to start planning for your 2022-2023 skiing activities now when you can get the price discounts!
Rather than trying to list the various details (cost, participating mountains, restrictions, benefits, etc.) for the various passes here, we recommend clicking on for information compiled by Avant Ski to find the information you need to make a decision on which pass would be best for you. At this time, no announcement has been made regarding pricing for the Epic pass or when it will go on sale. The Indy pass went on sale March 2nd, the Mountain Collective pass on March 10th, and the Ikon pass goes on sale March 15th. (Destination information will be announced soon!)Īs the four major ski pass purveyors roll out their passes for the next ski season, you will notice some changes, such as the number of participating mountains, price increases, additional pass options, payment and insurance options, and early purchase discounts. With all four of our western weeklong trips – and one of the eastern weekend trips – being planned at resorts accepting the Ikon pass, it is definitely worth considering, especially if you are thinking of signing up for multiple trips next season. It looks like KOPSC is going to have an Ikon ski season in 2022-2023.
