Less Than 100 Days ‘Til Winter!
Yep—you read that right. In just under three months, those slopes will be dusted with fresh snow, the mountain village will come alive with ski gear and hot cocoa scent—and your family’s next great winter adventure is just around the bend.
Opening Day: Let the Fun Begin!
Snowshoe’s official Opening Day for the 2025–26 ski season is Wednesday, November 26, 2025, weather permitting. That’s when the lifts fire up and fresh corduroy greets your first turns of the season. Mark your calendar—you’ll want to be there as soon as the snow flies.
Kids Ski Free Week – December 6 to 12, 2025
Here’s a sweet deal for families: Kids Ski Free Week runs December 6–12, 2025. That means kids aged 12 and under get free lift tickets all week—no extras, no catch. It’s a generous way to introduce the little ones to winter sports (if they haven’t already fallen in love).
Flurry of Savings – October 1 to 9
Before the snow even arrives, your wallet can celebrate. Flurry of Savings, from October 1–9, delivers up to 20% off lodging, rentals, and lessons—perfect for early planners who want to score winter deals.
Flex 3 Pass: Ski for Less Than $67/Day
Flexibility is everything, especially when you’re balancing school, work, and unexpected powder days. The Flex 3 Pass gives you 3 full days of skiing or riding for just $199—that works out to under $67 per day (a solid ~60% discount compared to walk-up tickets). Use them anytime (excluding blackout dates), however you like. Pro tip: prices jump to $249 after October 10, and passes sell out fast.
Ikon Pass: Open More Mountains
Want mountains beyond Snowshoe? The Ikon Pass is your golden ticket. It's accepted at Snowshoe plus 50+ resorts worldwide—including fan favorites like Aspen Snowmass (CO), Jackson Hole (WY), Big Sky (MT), Mammoth Mountain (CA), and Stratton (VT). Perfect for families who like to mix local slopes with bigger adventures across the U.S. and beyond.
