Introducing the COLLEGE Cali Pass - Ride All Next Season For Just $50 Down
Start living THAT life with UNLIMITED access to Mountain High, China Peak, Dodge Ridge & Bear Valley. The College Cali Pass lets you lock in with just a $50 deposit, then rally your friends to unlock deeper discounts for the full 2026/27 season.
Think of it as a Crew Pass..the more friends you bring, the cheaper it gets. And yes… that means if you get 3+ friends, you ride for just $249.
So if you’ve ever said something like, “Wait… are you telling me I can ride the rest of this season for $50 and get next season for $249 if my friends join?” Yep. That’s exactly what we’re saying.

How the Deposit Works
To get started, you only need a $50 deposit. ($100 Deposit after 5/1)
-
The deposit counts toward your final pass price.
-
Final payment is due by October 31, 2026.

If the balance isn’t paid by that date, the deposit is forfeited.
Mountain High also allows Affirm payment plans, giving you flexibility to pay over time.
Build Your Crew
Beginning Labor Day 26, you’ll be able to:
