While the rest of the world enjoys reasonably priced lift tickets, here in the U.S., a single day of skiing can cost the family farm. But thats not true all over the States. Just 14 miles north of Flagstaff, Ariz., Snowbowl is undercutting almost every other ski mountain in North America this season.
If you plan ahead and buy early, you can get a lift ticket at Snowbowl for as low as $10.
Its the lowest price Arizona Snowbowl has ever offered in its 87-year history, according to the resort. That makes skiing more accessible for a lot more people and families who cant afford Big Mountain prices like you find at Vail or Aspen.

(Photo/Snowbowl) “Ticket prices can be a barrier to those who would otherwise love to try skiing or snowboarding,” Angie Grubb, marketing manager at Arizona Snowbowl, said in a press release. “With low-priced tickets, free skiing for kids, and new upgrades, we’re making Snowbowl more accessible and memorable for locals and visitors alike.”
The ski season at Snowbowl starts on Nov. 21 (weather permitting). Buy your day passes sooner for the lowest price.
Arizona Snowbowl: The Peoples Mountain Peruse the calendar on Snowbowls lift tickets webpage to see which days cost what. During peak times, like around holidays, or mid-season when the snow is best, lift tickets will cost more. But on the margins, in early and late season, you can find plenty of days when prices are $20, $15, and as low as $10.
Theres even a hidden easter egg in the calendar: On April 1, lift tickets are just $1.
As of this writing, not a single day on the calendar exceeds $100 —but that could change as the season draws nearer.

(Photo/Snowbowl) Plenty of ski resorts use open-ended demand-based pricing, but very few have as low a price floor as Snowbowl. Not only that, but kids under 12 ski for free, making it even easier for families who want to hit the slopes together.
This year, Snowbowl made some upgrades to its operation. Visitors can now expect more gladed tree skiing along the Arizona Gondola, earlier and longer access to Humphreys’ Chairlift thanks to recent snowmaking investments, as well as a new rental fleet of boards and skis — and upgraded Wi-Fi.
Full-season pass holders at Snowbowl also get a host of benefits, including six 35% off buddy passes, 10 consecutive days at Valle Nevado and La Parva in Chile, and unlimited ski days at Snowbowl, Purgatory, Sipapu, Pajarito, Nordic Valley, Brian Head, Willamette Pass, Lee Canyon, and Sandia Peak ski areas.
The resort offers several tiers of age-based pricing, but a full adult Power Pass costs $1,050, and a youth (13-18) Power Pass is $650.
If you plan on skiing Snowbowl all winter, and/or traveling to ski these other mountains, the season pass is worth a look. Otherwise, check out the season calendar to shop for the lowest day passes and plan your trip.
