Does this pass allow chairlift access? NO!!!No! This pass requires you to go uphill the old fashion way: one step at a time. With this pass you get access to each participating mountain (and the benefits of their snow-making and grooming operations). However, make sure you are also always following the policies of each individual mountain (we have them nicely compiled in the Uphill New England mobile app). They can also shutdown uphill access for a variety of reasons - just like downhill skiing - so make sure you check before you go.

Why is there a limit of one pass per transaction?We welcome you to buy many passes, but only one per transaction. We have set up an integration with DocuSign that will automatically fill out your info for all the liability waivers. Please use the name of the person who will be using the pass for each transaction. Thanks!
