Last updated: [PUBLISH DATE]. This is the complete, fully expanded version of the terms shown in the accordion on the Season Passes page. Same content, one page, built to print.
The 2026/27 winter season is expected to run from late November 2026 through early to mid March 2027. Operating dates and hours are weather and snow dependent, and early-season and late-season hours can close earlier than posted.
Fall rates are valid through noon on October 28, 2026, when all passes move to full price. Season passes come off sale for the 2026/27 season after January 15, 2027.
Prices are subject to change without notice. All prices are subject to tax.
Season pass purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable. Passes cannot be transferred to another person or to another season under any circumstance, and they are not for resale.
The one exception is Season Pass Insurance. If you add coverage at the time of purchase and a qualifying event occurs, your purchase can be refunded under the terms in the Description of Coverage. Coverage runs approximately 8.8% of the pass price and must be added during checkout. It cannot be added afterward. If you choose not to purchase pass insurance, you will not be eligible for a refund of any kind.
Season Pass Insurance is sold by FanShield, LLC, NPN 18828928. For California residents, FanShield, LLC does business as FanShield Insurance Solutions, CA License No. 0M66549.
If you purchase a pass and then become a Welch Village employee, your purchase is not refunded, but you may transfer your pass for a $50 fee. A transfer is not allowed once the pass has been used or after December 24, 2026.
Purchase your pass before noon on October 28, 2026 and upload a photo to your guest record, and your season pass card will be mailed to you during November 2026. It goes to the address on your account, so make sure it is current. Email info@welchvillage.com right away if anything needs updating.
Purchase after noon on October 28, 2026, or leave the photo off your guest record, and you will pick your card up at the Main Chalet ticket windows on your first visit of the season. Cards are only available for pickup once we are open for skiing and riding. Weekend mornings before 1PM can run long, so build in extra time.
Season pass members present their pass card at the ticket windows every day they ski or ride, to receive that day’s lift ticket.
Attach the ticket to your outer ski garment with the fastener provided, somewhere clearly visible. On warm days, put it on a layer you are not going to take off, such as your snow pants.
If your ticket of the day is not properly displayed, or if you ski or ride without obtaining it first, a $200 fine is assessed.
Lost or stolen card. Report it to the ticket office right away so it can be deactivated. A $10 replacement fee applies.
Forgot your card at home. We can issue your daily ticket at the Main Chalet ticket windows for a $5 fee per person.
Every pass holder must electronically sign the release of liability when purchasing a season pass. Your pass card does not activate until the release is signed.
If the pass holder is under 18, a parent or legal guardian must complete the release on their behalf before the first visit.
If Welch Village Ski Patrol or any Welch Village employee sees you ski or snowboard in a closed area, your lift ticket will be removed and you will be asked to leave the premises. A warning will not be given.
Closed areas include chairlift lines, summer access roads, closed trails, and any area marked by orange signs reading CLOSED, with or without ropes.
Season pass holders receive an immediate two-week suspension on a first offense. A second offense results in suspension for the remainder of the season.
