    Boyne Resorts Announces New Season Pass Options

    Boyne Resorts, a major player in the North American ski industry, has revealed its latest season pass offerings for the 2025-26 winter season. The company has introduced two new pass types designed to provide skiers and riders with flexible access to their collection of ski resorts across the continent. These new passes aim to cater to different travel preferences and frequency of visits.

    The first option is the Boyne Passport, priced at $2,600. This pass grants unlimited access to all Boyne Resorts locations without any blackout dates. It includes unrestricted use of the Lone Peak Tram at Big Sky Resort and early lift access at several resorts including Big Sky, Sunday River, Sugarloaf, Boyne Mountain, and The Highlands. Additional perks include summer lift access for scenic rides and mountain biking, discounted lift tickets for friends and family, and savings on lodging and retail. Passport holders can also enjoy a 50% discount on lift tickets at Mountain Collective resorts and have the option to add an Ikon Pass for $799 or an Ikon Base Pass for $299.

    The second option is the Boyne Explorer Pass. This pass offers three to six days of access across Boyne destinations throughout the winter, with some blackout dates at Big Sky Resort. It also includes a bonus day at either Pleasant Mountain or Cypress Mountain. Explorer Pass holders can benefit from up to 20% off resort lodging.

    Nick Lambert, Chief Marketing Officer at Boyne Resorts, explained that these new passes were developed in response to customer demand for a more comprehensive access option across their ski resorts. The company aims to provide a seamless experience for skiers and riders who frequent multiple Boyne locations.

    Boyne Resorts operates a diverse range of ski resorts across North America. Their portfolio includes Big Sky Resort in Montana, known for its expansive terrain and the Lone Peak Tram. Other notable resorts include Sunday River and Sugarloaf in Maine, Boyne Mountain and The Highlands in Michigan, as well as Pleasant Mountain and Cypress Mountain. Each resort offers unique features and terrain, catering to various skill levels and preferences. With these new pass options, Boyne Resorts is positioning itself to provide more value and flexibility to skiers and riders for the upcoming 2025-26 winter season.

    Arosa to Replace 40-Year-Old Hörnli Lifts With New Gondola and Chair

    Arosa to Replace 40-Year-Old Hörnli Lifts With New Gondola and Chair

    Arosa's Hörnli sector is getting its biggest overhaul in decades. The 1986 gondola and 1994 chairlift linking toward Lenzerheide are both being replaced, with capacity up, tower count down and a new base station lower on the hill. At roughly CHF 67 million, it is the largest single investment Arosa Bergbahnen has ever made - and the target opening has already slipped a year, to December 2028. Here is what is changing, and why the timeline moved.

    Sundance Mountain Resort Is Getting a New High-Speed Quad and More Back Mountain Terrain This Winter

    Sundance Mountain Resort Is Getting a New High-Speed Quad and More Back Mountain Terrain This Winter

    Sundance Mountain Resort's back mountain is finally getting a proper lift. The Electric Horseman Express opens for 2026-27, unlocking a new bowl next to Bishop's Bowl and three expert gladed chutes across roughly 105 fresh acres - on top of the Storyteller ridge run that debuted in preview form last season. It's Sundance's biggest expansion since 1985, and it turns a three-lift slog into a single six-minute ride to Bearclaw Summit.

    Levi and Ruka Confirm October 2 Opening on Farmed Summer Snow

    Levi and Ruka Confirm October 2 Opening on Farmed Summer Snow

    Finland's Levi and Ruka open for the 2026-27 season on October 2, more than seven weeks before most of Europe sees a lift turn. Neither resort is waiting on autumn snowfall - both are skiing on snow buried since last spring, insulated through the Finnish summer and dug back out for opening day. It is not a shortcut. It is a decades-old system now spreading from the Arctic Circle to Idaho, Utah, Vermont and Colorado. Here is how snow farming actually works, and why it is catching on.

    Nassfeld Invests €13 Million in New 6-Seater Chairlift for 2026/27 Season

    Nassfeld Invests €13 Million in New 6-Seater Chairlift for 2026/27 Season

    Nassfeld is putting €13 million into a new 6-seater chairlift, the Tressdorfer Almbahn, connecting Sonnleitn with the Tressdorfer Alm from December 2026. It replaces three ageing drag lifts and will run through summer too, from June 2027, moving up to 2,500 people an hour on the roughly three-minute ride. It's the latest step in Carinthia's largest ski resort building out a genuine year-round offering, following last year's Gartnerkofelbahn gondola.

    Stelvio Glacier Suspends Summer Skiing, Leaving Continental Europe Without a Lift-Served Slope

    Stelvio Glacier Suspends Summer Skiing, Leaving Continental Europe Without a Lift-Served Slope

    Italy's Stelvio Glacier has pulled the plug on summer skiing from August 15. It was the last lift-served ski option left standing in continental Europe, and now there's none. Operator SIFAS pointed to persistent heat, storms, and a snowpack that simply wasn't refreezing overnight anymore. The cable car keeps running. Whether skiing comes back later this summer depends on the weather turning - and right now, nobody's promising anything.

    Maverick Mountain's Only Chairlift Destroyed as Sand Creek Fire Tears Through Montana Ski Area

    Maverick Mountain's Only Chairlift Destroyed as Sand Creek Fire Tears Through Montana Ski Area

    Firefighters saved every base building at Maverick Mountain, Montana, but the resort's sole chairlift didn't survive the Sand Creek Fire. Owners Erik and Kristi Borge say the lift is "most likely" out for the 2026/27 season after flames tore through the mountain on August 8. The wildfire has since grown past 27,700 acres with zero percent containment. It's a gutting result for the tiny, one-lift operation near Dillon - though the lodge, groomers and equipment all made it through untouched.

    Fairmont Niseko: New Luxury Resort Revives Stalled La Plume Site for Early 2028 Opening

    Fairmont Niseko: New Luxury Resort Revives Stalled La Plume Site for Early 2028 Opening

    Fairmont is bringing its second Japanese property to Niseko, and this one's got history. The 165-room resort will rise on the site of the stalled La Plume project, which collapsed into bankruptcy in 2025 before J-Will Partners bought the site for redevelopment. Set between Mount Yotei and Mount Annupuri, it's slated for an early 2028 opening - putting it in play for the 2027/28 season. Expect two restaurants, a spa, onsen bathing, and a kids' club, a short drive from Niseko Village and Hirafu.

    Saas-Fee Closes Its Glacier to Summer Skiing as Heat Wave Drags On

    Saas-Fee Closes Its Glacier to Summer Skiing as Heat Wave Drags On

    Saas-Fee is closing its glacier to summer skiing from Monday, August 10 - the second major Swiss resort to shut in under two weeks after Zermatt suspended operations on August 1. Persistent heat and warm nights that won't let the glacier refreeze are behind the call, per Saastal Bergbahnen. That leaves Italy's Stelvio as the only glacier ski area open in the Alps. Reopening could come as early as August 17, though nothing's confirmed - and racing teams are already looking south instead.
