Pebble Creek season pass: straight answers
- Is the Pebble Creek season pass worth it for 2026-27?
- The Adult Season Pass costs $686. At roughly $70 for a peak-window day ticket at Pebble Creek, it pays for itself at about 10 days on the hill, and this mountain typically delivers 13 powder days a season. Ski fewer than 10 days and day tickets are cheaper; ski more and the pass wins. Note that Indy Pass ($369) also covers Pebble Creek for 2 days, so compare both.
- How many days do you need to ski to break even on the Pebble Creek pass?
- About 10. That is $686 divided by the ~$70 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.
- Pebble Creek season pass vs Indy Pass: which is better?
- Indy Pass ($369) only covers 2 days at Pebble Creek. If Pebble Creek is your home mountain and you ski it a lot, the $686 local pass pulls ahead; if you travel to several of the megapass's resorts, it doesn't.
- How good is the skiing at Pebble Creek?
- Across 36 recorded winters, 35% of five-day trips to Pebble Creek would have included at least one morning after 6+ inches of new snow. It averages 13 powder days a season, with 6 in its leanest recorded year and 27 in its best. That is counted from the record, not forecast.
