HERE’S MORE ON THE $6.50 TICKETS:

“Due to overwhelming demand, we are no longer offering standalone $6.50 Snowmass 50th Anniversary lift tickets in advance. Tickets will still be available for $6.50 in-resort on Friday, December 15 at Snowmass. Lodging and lift ticket packages featuring the $6.50 lift ticket will continue to be offered through Stay Aspen Snowmass and other participating tour operators. Guests purchasing multi-day lift tickets that include December 15 will be able to buy the $6.50 Snowmass ticket directly through the call center at 800-525-6200.

By limiting the number of tickets sold in advance, we hope to mitigate congestion but guests should anticipate crowds and plan accordingly.

If skiing is the priority, guests should consider purchasing a ticket valid for our other three mountains.”
