Panorama season pass: straight answers
- Is the Panorama season pass worth it for 2026-27?
- The Panorama Adult Unlimited Season Pass (18-64) costs $1,419. At roughly $125 for a peak-window day ticket at Panorama, it pays for itself at about 12 days on the hill, and this mountain typically delivers 4 powder days a season. Ski fewer than 12 days and day tickets are cheaper; ski more and the pass wins. Note that Mountain Collective ($699) also covers Panorama for 2 days, so compare both.
- How many days do you need to ski to break even on the Panorama pass?
- About 12. That is $1,419 divided by the ~$125 peak-window day ticket. The table on this page shows the cost per day at 3, 5, 8, 12, 20 and 30 days so you can find your own crossover.
- Panorama season pass vs Mountain Collective: which is better?
- Mountain Collective ($699) only covers 2 days at Panorama, then 50% off after. If Panorama is your home mountain and you ski it a lot, the $1,419 local pass pulls ahead; if you travel to several of the megapass's resorts, it doesn't.
