winter 23/24 | Lifted by Ikon Pass

EVERYWHERE YOU WANT TO BE 178,860 skiable acres, spread across more than 50 destinations worldwide. That includes 10 countries, almost as many languages, and endless ways to play. The stoke stays high as you bounce across multiple North American mountains in snow-laced landscapes like California, Colorado, Utah, and beyond. THE GOOD STUFF GETS BETTER More terrain to ride, more views to see, more ways to move, more comfort to be found – that's just a touch of what pass holders can look forward to throughout the 23/24 season. Boots on the ground have been putting in off-season work to make improvements that span coast to coast. The Good Stuff lives everywhere you want to be. STEAMBOAT 23/24 is the culmination of the most extensive destination redevelopment ever seen. This 3-year, $220+ million-dollar project will close by adding 655 acres of expert terrain. This expanded footprint places Steamboat as the 2nd largest ski resort in Colorado. To supplement this new terrain, Steamboat will open the upper section of Wild Blue Gondola, the fastest and longest 10-person gondola in North America.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 MOUNTAIN Ringing in the 23/24 season, Copper Mountain has set the stage for its single most significant resort investment in over a decade, and every bit of it is focused on enhancing the guest experience.
