What is resort credit?
Select advance lift tickets include $10 in resort credit to spend on food, drinks and retail gear on the mountain.
Why do prices change?
We use variable pricing — book early for the lowest rate. Prices rise as your ski date gets closer and demand grows.
Do I need a lift ticket for everything?
Yes. A valid lift ticket or season pass is required to access the lifts and mountain terrain.
How do rentals and lessons work?
Reserve rentals and lessons online ahead of time. First-timers can bundle a ticket, rentals and a lesson with the Never-Ever Experience.
What is RFID?
Sandia is moving to hands-free RFID lift access this season. Passes are no longer mailed — pick up your RFID card on your first visit.
Do kids really ski free?
Yes. Kids 12 and under ski free with the FREE Power Kids Pass at Sandia and 11 other Power Pass mountains.
