The other options available is a five-day lift ticket for $345.00 and a six day for $393.00. The tickets must be preordered with your registration.

  Note: If you also purchase both your season IKON and EPIC pass from our travel operator, you will receive a Sun Valley Ski Week lodging credit of $100.00. Purchases can be made at http://www.winterskiandsportcom/shop. Indicate “Far West” as the name of your club.
