SAM Magazine—Wildwood, Mo., March 4, 2016—With seven properties from Pennsylvania to New Hampshire, including newly acquired Hunter Mountain in New York, Peak Resorts has consolidated its season pass products for what it refers to as its northeast region. The new Peak Pass family of products takes an approach akin to American Skiing Company's All 4 One passes and Vail's Epic Pass, providing access to multiple resorts for a low price relative to the rest of the market.

The flagship Explorer Pass starts at $399 for youth ages 7 to 17, and $599 for thirty plus year olds, with no blackout dates for any of the seven resorts: Mount Snow, Vt.; Attitash, Wildcat, and Crotched Mountain, N.H.; Hunter Mountain, N.Y.; and Jack Frost and Big Boulder, Pa.

The only comparable product Peak offered last season was the Nor'easter Pass, which also had no blackout dates to ski and ride and the six Northeast properties it owned prior to purchasing Hunter. At its highest price point, though, the Nor'easter sold for well over $1,000.

“This winter, we looked at all of our pass products across the Northeast, including the offerings of our newest acquisition, Hunter Mountain,” said Tim Boyd, CEO and president of Peak Resorts. “We felt the variety of each resort's on-mountain experience, as well as the proximity of our resorts, makes the Peak Pass a unique and affordable product for the vast majority of skiers and riders in the Northeastern U.S.”

Other Peak passes include the Drifter Pass, for ages 18 to 29 ($399); the all ages Ranger Pass, which has 11 blackout dates ($499); the all ages midweek-only Traveler Pass ($299); and the Scout Pass for ages six and under ($60). Deadline for purchasing the new passes at the posted prices is April 30, 2016. New passholders can also ski and ride for the rest of this season on their 2016-17 passes.
