PASS DEADLINE EXTENDED THROUGH 9/11!
Still trying to figure out your season pass plans for next winter? What are you waiting for? Days are getting shorter, ski magazines are coming out, and it is absolutely, unquestionably time to get your pass. Looking to expand your horizons??? Upgrade any pass for unlimited access to the Kirkwood Cross Country and Snowshoe Center! Act now: by web, by phone or in person at the Season Pass Office to receive your passport to the best snow and terrain in the Sierra for the best price available.

OK – the following is for those who aren’t familiar with what passes are available and the benefits of each. If this is you, read on…

Let's cut the big picture down a little... you want a Kirkwood pass. If you had one this past season, you know already that you wouldn't take the chance of NOT having the pass that allows access to the best snow we have in Tahoe. If you didn't have a Kirkwood pass this past season, you may have only heard about the bowls full of powder that became the mainstay of all of our diets... but at least you were clued in. You know not to make that mistake again. If this is all news to you, one piece of advice... ignorance is not bliss. Just because you don't have the longing aches for waist deep powder and E-Ticket rides doesn't mean you didn't miss out. You did. And you definitely don't want to do it again.

So here's what we have for you:

Midweek Pass - $199
Although other ski resorts have adopted this pass, Kirkwood still offers the best value for the local community.

Adult Value Pass - $299
This pass is subject to holiday blackout dates, but you can purchase one discounted lift ticket for yourself each day your pass isn't valid.

Adult Full Pass - $449
Don't want to mess around with adding days? For a hundred dollars, you can add them all. The entire 2005/06 season for $399. You also receive five all day tickets at the afternoon rate for friends and family, so you can be a hero when it snows three feet on December 29th.

Student Value Pass - $199
Same deal as the adults (if you're a full time student and have a valid college i.d.), only for less. We know you're poor. But if you think you can budget an additional hundred dollars, read on...

Student Full Pass - $299
It almost seems enough just to have the opportunity to get every single powder day we have for one low price. But wait, there's more! You also receive five all day tickets at the afternoon rate for friends and family, so you can take along the slacker who just couldn't get it together to buy his own pass. Silly chap.

Of course we also have passes for everyone else, from the super seniors (these people are rock stars and we all want to be just like them when we grow up) down to the little children.
