New College Pass Offered at Tamarack Resort This Winter

College students can get unlimited access to Tamarack for just $99.

DONNELLY, ID (August, 2015) - College students are well-known for living on a shoestring, and for those that ski or snowboard, Tamarack has a new way for them to get on the snow for less. Today, Tamarack Resort is unveiling its new $99 College Season Pass.

For just $99, college students will have unlimited access to the mountain for the entire 2015-16 winter season, which means skiing 7 days-aweek from mid-December through late March. The College Pass is an easy purchasing decision for anyone attending college. With a single day ticket costing $62 this winter, the College Pass is perfect for any college student who plans to ski or snowboard more than once this season.


“This is the best college season pass deal in Idaho. If you are in college, and you ski or ride, then this product is a no brainer,” says Brad Larsen, General Manager at Tamarack Resort. Along with the low price, the College Pass comes with some perks.

Pass holders have three “Bring a Friend Fridays” where they can bring a friend to the mountain for just $25 per ticket. Plus, the season pass comes with discounts on retail and equipment rentals. Tamarack’s College Pass is available to all college students, even those that attend part-time. The price will remain at $99 through Monday, November 16. After November 16, the price will increase to $299.

The College Season pass can be purchased online at tamarackidaho.com or by calling 208.325.1030 and requires valid college identification upon pick-up.
