Everyone needs their own RFID card to ski/snowboard. Anyone who has an RFID card from the 2021-2022 season or later can reuse the card this season and lift tickets will be automatically loaded onto it. Anyone who does not have one should choose the option to add an RFID card upon their first purchase and a $5 media fee will be applied. Scan the barcode at the top of the confirmation email at the Pickup Box near the ticket window to receive the RFID card. If you are a returning visitor who needs a replacement RFID card, choose the option to add an RFID card with your ticket purchase and pick up your new card at the ticket window.
